The article discusses America's most expensive cities, highlighting how appealing amenities often come with steep living costs. By analyzing the ratio of home prices to local wages, cities are ranked based on the affordability of housing. Notably, Los Angeles tops the list, with a mere 1.1% of homes affordable to median-income earners. San Diego and Anaheim follow closely. These cities exemplify the struggle of many residents to secure affordable housing amidst rising wages that fail to match living expenses.
Los Angeles is all about sunshine, entertainment, and affluence. People flock here for the beaches and Hollywood dreams, but unfortunately, the reality often includes sky-high housing costs.
Thanks to skyrocketing housing costs and a tourist-friendly dining scene, San Diego has become the second-most expensive city in the U.S. Wages have also struggled to keep up.
Anaheim is best known for Disneyland, but there's more to this city than castles and costumes. Pro sports teams, a bustling convention industry contribute to its housing costs.
