Cost of Living Calculator

Cost of Living Calculator is a simple, yet helpful application designed to provide users who want to move to another city of the US with a comparison concerning the general expenses in that specific town as opposed to the ones in the current location.

The program helps you to retrieve an estimation of how much you’ll be spending on food, transportation, health care, housing and utilities, helping you to make an informed decision.

It comes wrapped inside a very simple interface and uses a very straightforward approach, which makes it fit for all audiences, regardless of the level of IT knowledge.

Things are pretty intuitive, so there’s no need for detailed instructions on usage. It all comes down to selecting your current state and town, as well as the destination and annual salary, at which point you’ll be presented with the results almost instantly.

However, the selection of cities provided for each state is kind of poor, we might add; for instance, if you select Wyoming, you’ll be given two choices: Cheyenne and Laramie, which is extremely little compared to the number of cities in this state.

The results include a salary comparison between your input and the average salary in the selected city, as well as price differences for various expenses – groceries, utilities and the other stuff we mentioned above.

Using these details, you can assess if the decision of moving to another city is a wise one; however, we can’t guarantee for the accuracy of the calculations, so maybe a little more research wouldn’t hurt.

Cost of Living Calculator is an application that serves a good purpose, targeting US residents exclusively and offering a pretty good idea of what’s expecting them in a different city.
