Hawaii and D.C. are Money Pits Looking at the cost of living by state level (and including the District of Columbia), the most expensive places to live are: Hawaii, Washington D.C., New York, and New Jersey. California and Maryland are close behind.
In all of these places, on average, spending $100 will only get you about $85 of goods and services relative to the rest of the country.

They need to keep the chart going to include the entire planet.

If paying in local currency here sometimes you have to come up with 10% more to reach the dollar bar.

It's true, sometimes cheaper to order products from other states and have them shipped here instead of buying them from venders here in California. It sucks, really. I'd like to support my own state, but the taxes are ridiculous.
