Switching State Residency (and Driver's License)

I recently graduated and will be working in NYC full time this summer. My permanent home is in CA, and I have a CA driver's license. Should I switch to a New York driver's license and make my new NYC apartment my permanent address? I heard working full-time in NYC while having a permanent address in CA will make it harder to file taxes. Any advice or experiences?
