Yes. For our region we’ve got it good but on a national scale our cost of living is pretty high. But also who wants to live in the middle of nowhere Mississippi just to say they have a low cost of living

I was in nyc recently and let me tell you i am surprised how expensive groceries are out there! Jesus christ! A 40pack poland spring cost 14-15 dollars! Almost everything is 1.50 and up more expensive than here.

Definitely will not want to live in Philly. Idk those numbers should be updated because i have relatives that live in Florida and utilities and groceries are not that cheap!

Sure but then you'd have to live in the south.

I believe this. Cost of living is much lower here than Boston or New York, but not compared to Philadelphia and definitely not compared to the south.
