Cost of Living The higher cost of living is the first disadvantage that people typically think of when considering moving to a city.
Major cities always have a higher cost of living than the surrounding suburbs, and cities like San Francisco and New York routinely have the highest costs of living inthe U.S.
Normal living expenses such as rent and utilities tend to be higher in big cities and you may have additional living expenses you wouldn’t have in the suburbs such as parking permits and laundry.
Food, drinks, tobacco products, and gasoline are also more expensive in major cities.
