Reply to comment by PabloEscobar301 in These are the most and least expensive major U.S. cities based on the average cost of monthly expenses by PabloEscobar301

Fair, but according to the data here: https://www.doxo.com/insights/the-united-states-of-bill-pay-50-largest-u-s-cities-household-spend-report-2022/

After looking at incomes here, DC is one of the affordable places. In DC, people only spend 36.0% of average income on bills. In Los Angeles they spend 57% of average income on bills.

Of the top 50 metro areas, only 2 are more affordable by this metric. Only Minneapolis/St Paul and Omaha are cheaper.
