Is It Time To Consider Leaving Los Angeles, part two . . .

So hard to quit you.

So hard to quit you.

Adding on to where I was before . . . in a post:

In the last couple of days, this came out: Los Angeles Most Unaffordable City for Housing

And then, a friend shared this link with me: The Living Wage Calculator , which is a project basically to advocate for higher minimum wages, by showing what a “living wage” actually is, in real dollars and cents, in any location you plug into their search engine.

I figured I could also use this for planning where to live frugally on a fixed income, try to figure out where my dollars would go the furthest.

So here’s the baseline, no-frills living wage (annualized) for a single adult (hey, that’s me) in some of the locations (in descending order, from most expensive to least) I’ve considered over my months of ruminating on this issue:

Los Angeles: $23,640.

Palm Springs: $22,289.

NOLA: $21,869.

Sacramento: $20,696.

Las Vegas: $20,036.

Madison: $19,843.

Milwaukee: $19,717.

Tucson: $17,400.

So, is Tucson really about 27% less expensive than L.A.? Hmmm, it’s something to think about.
