[quote=Anonymous]I believe the COL differences are mainly - - Housing - Childcare and other domestic staffing - Transportation (and distance of home - work - school/daycare) - Private schools Household goods and food costs are really not that much. In fact in a diverse metropolitan place, you have more chances of having both Harris Teeter and H Mart. Small towns are mainly ...dollar general. People get screwed because they have - 1) student debt, 2) no monetary cushion, 3) health issues etc. I will say that most people can withstand an increase in food prices...but many cannot withstand an increase in gas prices or heating/cooling costs.
