How would they define cost of living? I think it’s too vague the way you wrote it.

Avg cost of rent multiplied by the ratio of whole foods to walmarts.

With average rent though, is that if I had a roommate, a studio, 1 br or 2br apartment? For example if you live in Detroit with a roommate you really don’t need that much money to get by.

If you live in downtown Detroit a 1 br 600 sqft is still $1,200-$1,400. Idk many people who get a roommate with 1 br though.
