1. Hawaii

While Hawaii may seem like a great destination to travel to, when it comes to actually living there, the situation might differ a bit. According to various studies, Hawaii’s middle-class families make a median household income of $74,529. And because bad news never ceases to appear, people say that it’s a competition between apartments and houses to see which one is more expensive. Furthermore, the cost of the monthly mortgage payment is $2,618. Sheesh!

In 2023, the situation will be far worse because even the cost of living is skyrocketing in Hawaii. If you’re a middle-class person who wasn’t able to save too much during the working years, don’t move to Hawaii!

    Cost of housing, taxers, etc. are all well and good. It is not, however, going to favor you to live in a state like Tennessee, which has more guns than any other state. Live in fear in your low rent house. No thanks.
