My fiance and I are getting married in four months, so we decided to start looking at houses. We’ve been to one showing, and looked at a lot of listings online; and I was starting to get a little discouraged by how expensive everything is. Then I got to work today and found this list of housing costs in other cities, and I suddenly didn’t feel so bad.
Bankrate.com has put together a list of the cities with the most expensive housing costs, factoring in the mortgage rate, insurance cost, and principle & interest. The results actually kind of surprised me. Here are the top ten:
- San Francisco – $2,497.68
- New York – $2,068.96
- Boston – $1,833.73
- San Diego – $1,746.21
- Washington, D.C. – $1,735.45
- Seattle – $1,726.50
- Los Angeles – $1,474.75
- Baltimore – $1,276.98
- Philadelphia – $1,183.43
- Chicago – $1,172.46
San Francisco is more expensive than New York City? Believe it!
So where does Denver place on the list? It’s actually number 11, right behind Chicago, with a cost of $1160.94 per month.
