Los Angeles area index 113.6, where 100 is the national average.

At 14% above the national average, LA's cost of living means your $80k–$150k nurse salary rents in Koreatown, East Hollywood, Glendale, or DTLA—not Westside buying. Koreatown packs families and Korean barbecue into noisy blocks with little greenery; Porter Ranch answers with trails, safety (safer than 94% of the city), and $681,550 median homes.
