The city to land in the top spot was San Francisco, barely beating out New York. 

Boston, San Jose and Washington, D.C. take a dive into lower numbers, but these cities are still expensive unless you share the cost or bring in a steep paycheck.

Chicago, Miami and Oakland sink below $2,000 per month on rent, while Los Angeles and Seattle sit at the bottom of the list.

But even the least expensive city on this list isn’t affordable to live in if you’re a low wage worker. The federal minimum wage still sits at $7.25 per hour for non-tipped employees, though several states, including California, have chosen to implement higher wages. Minimum wage workers in California currently earn $9.00 per hour, and legislation is being implemented to raise that number to $10.00 statewide by 2018, according to Raise The Wage.

As of now, 29 states have chosen to their minimum wage in recent years, as well as D.C.

But high rent isn’t just a problem for low income workers. Looking at the numbers, even if you have a decent income, rent could end up taking more than half of your money.
