Rate difference between cities?

[craigwilson123]

Hi, I'm a client living in Chicago.

I have one question... How do you think about rates difference between cities?
Maybe I'm wrong, but I found that several nice providers in Dallas offer services for lower rate than Chicago.
When I checked providers, here in Dallas rates are .5 lower than other cities.
(for similar providers who have similar points in TER)
Do you feel similar kind of difference? Or just am I wrong?

If I am right, nice providers, please visit Chicago area.

Different cities have different rates, different markets, and different demands. Otherwise, welcome to Texas!

The OP does not seem to understand that most everything is more expensive in Chicago. Housing, gas, taxes, etc ... It just goes to reason that hooktards would be more expensive, too.

You mean Illinois isn't subsidizing escort rates? They screw everyone else up there.

The same provider will also often charge different rates in different cities. There are some cities that, at my Dallas rate, gents wouldn't want to see me because they would wonder why my rate is so low... the marketplace is different just about everywhere.

If some of these Dallas ladies take you up on your offer to visit Chicago, they will have to recoup the airfare, hotel cost, and any advertising in addition to their usual costs.

I suppose some might be able to save money by not paying for their Dallas incall while they are out of town (I don't know how many have a situation where they can opt in and out of their incall a few days at a time. I wouldn't think many), and not paying for advertising in Dallas. She would have to time it just right to avoid paying Dallas advertising when she's not in town. Eros, for example, has one-month ads minimum for one's home base.

When I toured Boston and NYC I raised my one hour rate quite a bit and was as busy as I wanted to be. (I kept my multi-hour rates the same to encourage longer dates).

The other escorts' rates were higher there than in Dallas and the hotel costs were very high!

But the big problem was "lost opportunity". I missed seeing guys in Dallas who could have become regulars.

it's not hard to understand.... even gasoline prices are lower in South Dallas, than North Dallas

Simple Supply and Demand. We have a ton of providers here so the market caps the rate. If you had our quality and cut the number of providers by 50% you would see rates averaging $400 I bet.

I'm in my old home town (NOLA) until tomorrow then back to Dallas. You would think NOLA would be good for the hobby but it's really not. Dallas has it beat hands down. Great choice of gals, reasonable rates and generally safe. Even with the Dallas area online drama at times on eccy it's still the best.

Yes it is more inexpensive down there; including apparently the escort market. I saw a touring escort advertising in Chicago once as being an hdh from dallas with rates stating from only $$$ per hour.
