To give you an accurate answer, I would actually have to prepare a NY and a PA tax return, and I will not do that without compensation.

Besides, taxes is only part of the equation. You will have to pay NY income taxes, and it is likely PA will give you a credit for that payment is you live in PA. However, you should consider, in addition to the taxes:

- the daily commute to work.
- the cost of living in PA versus NY.
- the cost of housing in PA versus NY.
