Affordability is all about the numbers.
Understanding how far your dollar will “stretch” in a place you want to call home, is often a key decision-making factor when determining where to live.
Thanks to cost-of-living formulas it’s pretty easy to compare different cities. And you may be surprised at how much neighboring towns or cities can actually vary.
South Lake County has a low cost of living score thanks to:
Lower property taxes
No state income tax
Home costs per square foot are less
A lower average price of homes
Lots are typically larger because the land is less
Higher-paying jobs because the area is attracting more professional industries
But don’t take our word for it. Check out how we stack up against some major cities in other areas of the country (2019 stats).
