median household income in Louisiana is $58k FWIW

If it takes $190k to live comfortably in Louisiana, it takes way more than that (not 277k) to live comfortably in California.
You have to factor in how Louisiana always is looking for a way to scam you out of some of your money (speed traps, traffic cams, DMV fines and fees, high as hell court costs).

Not apples to apples since different methodology but the states remain consistent between cheap to expensive

their definition of comfortable has to be absolutely asinine.

It is all because of Johnson County. It is one of the richest counties in the country. Get outside of the KC metro and kansas gets a LOT cheaper.

Define comfort? I make well over $400k/year yet….
Have never spent more than $15,000 on a vehicle
Paid cash for a humble house
Mow my own grass, do home projects, repairs myself
Change my own oil, fixes myself
Clean my own house
Exercise regularly and eat healthy = no prescription medication or doctor visits
Only eat out on special occasions as a treat/reward.
My bills, including groceries total less than $1000/month.
Not sure why you need to make that much to live in Texas unless you’re just an entitled, spoiled, piece of trash. The younger generation needs a big lesson in a ‘do it yourself’ mentality.

Seeing as a couple in VA can’t afford a median house in their area for 160k, 235 seems conservative
Home cost seems to be the driver.
