Connecticut's Hartford and New Haven enter the top 20, with other expensive New England cities like Worcester and Providence. California dominates the rankings with nine cities. Senior economic research analyst Hannah Jones emphasizes that despite high costs, the desirable lifestyles in these areas often make the expense worth it for residents.
Connecticut sees two cities, Hartford and New Haven, making the top 20 most expensive places in the US, alongside several other New England locations.
California dominates the list, with nine cities among the most expensive, highlighting the high costs of living on the West Coast.
Hannah Jones notes that many expensive areas, due to their desirable features like beaches and city access, justify their high costs as worthwhile.
