What States Give the Most Value for your Housing Dollars?

Where can you get the best housing dollar values? We all know that living in New Jersey is not cheap. High taxes, high housing costs and more. However, we do have low gasoline prices, but not as low as it used to be. In fact, in New Jersey you can purchase $88.18 worth of goods for only $100.00

Say What?

Yes – for $100 you get $88.18 worth of goods. It’s the same as California. The only places where you get less for your $100.00 is Washington DC and Hawaii.

On the other hand, most of the mid west you get over $100.00 worth of goods for your $100.00

So if you are thinking of leaving New Jersey for a less expensive area, where should you go?

The five states with the highest cost of living are:

Washington DC
Hawaii
New York
New Jersey
California

Whoo Hoo! We’re #4!

The five states with the lowest cost of living are:

Mississippi
Alabama
Arkansas
South Dakota
Kentucky

The five states above do have the lowest cost of living, but I wouldn’t want to live there. I can put up with the high Housing Dollar Values because I like it here in New Jersey.
