Unfortunately many people here don't even make median income. I'm fortunate enough to make above that. Things are cheaper here but we also make a heck of a lot less money. If I vacation within my state, I'm golden but I realize my dollar doesn't stretch very far when I travel.

I went to Cape Cod last spring and realized how poor I was compared to the people there. Multi-million dollars sea side chanties abound.
