1. New York City. The Big Apple is at the top of the list, coming in as the most expensive city in America. Monthly rent is $4,078 versus close second San Franciscoâs $3,769. One of the biggest differences between the two coastal cities is transportation; New York Cityâs being 45 percent more expensive.
What drives cost of living in the most and least expensive cities? Thereâs also similarly wide disparities in cost-of-living patterns across our major capital cities. Sydney ranks as the most expensive, followed by Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. Perthâs ranking jars against the popular perception that it is one of the most expensive cities in Australia. Sydneyâs ranking as the most expensive city is mainly driven by increases in housing and education costs, which have risen by 5.7% and 5%, respectively, between 1995 and 2017. Housing makes up one-quarter of householdsâ spending â the dominant share.
