    "I’ve lived in Nantucket for 9 years and it’s a nice place to live , however the cost of living is outrageous...! !! Actually 497% above the national average.. the cost increases every day and is displacing locals on a regular basis.. it’s a huge problem that currently does not have a practical solution.."
