Cost Effects

One of my friends is moving across the country for a new job. I don't think it will be too much of a change for her since she's used to being in larger cities now. We were wondering what the price differences will be since neither of us has traveled to the east coast. We figure that there should be some differences in transportation, water and electricity at the least. One would assume that since the energy crisis in California and the prices keep jumping all over the place that new jersey electricity would be quite a bit cheaper, but who knows. We pay about the same for our place as my parents do but our weather is a lot more extreme than it is there.
