Uh...the Obamas stayed in Washington so Sasha could finish the year at Sidwell. The Secret Service is protecting their DC and Hawaii homes as a result. So they did exactly the same thing, and I have no problem with it in either case.
That happens with every POTUS. Right now, the SS is having to protect the WH, Mar-a-Lago, Camp David (which he's never going to use because he thinks that he's too good for it) and Trump Tower. It's absurd, particularly considering that local governments are having to fund the security for Mar-a-Lago and Trump Tower.
All of you fricks who are normally anti-tax seem to be perfectly ok with taxes going toward this shite though.

Necessary expense.
They can't just liquidate all property and then scramble to find a place to live when they leave the White House. Well, they could, but it would create its own set of issues.
And there are just too many psychos out there. Every Presidential family needs a high level of security.

They're getting reimbursement from the feds.

Not even the most fiscally conservative republicans in Congress has made a big stink about this at all during the last 3 decades from Clinton to Trump.
It's a necessary expense as its a consequence of POTUS being the most powerful politician on Earth.
You don't like it? Well, then make the presidency less powerful or vote for candidates with small families, are single and/or childless couples, with all of them having being poor as hell and having very few if any assets and properties.

I'm pretty sure this was factored in to voters minds when they pulled the lever in November.
