The Most Expensive Suburbs in Every State - Yahoo Finance

The best suburbs in America have a combination of appealing characteristics: nice homes, low crime rates and great amenities. Of course, these desirable features come with a price tag — in some cases, an exorbitant one.

To find the best suburbs in every state, GOBankingRates conducted a comprehensive study analyzing the cost of living, quality of schools and safety in suburban areas surrounding the biggest cities across the country. Factors in this study included:

• Median home list price and median monthly rent, sourced from Zillow’s May 2019 index

• Annual cost of groceries, healthcare, utilities and transportation, sourced from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ 2017-18 Consumer Expenditure Survey

• Quality of school districts, sourced from Niche

• Violent and property crime rates per 1,000 residents, sourced from Neighborhood Scout

The best suburbs in the study are all cities with fewer than 100,000 residents and are located within a 45-mile drive of the principal city. These suburban communities tend to be wealthier, better-educated and healthier in comparison to their inner-city and rural counterparts.

Some of the results of the study are not surprising. Most of the states with the most expensive rents are easy to guess: California, Massachusetts, New York, Connecticut and Hawaii. These same states also rank highly in terms of median home list price. However, one state, Texas, also has some of the most expensive rents and median home prices in America, in its University Park suburb.

When it comes to the combined annual cost of non-housing necessities, many of the usual suspects also appear on the list, including Hawaii, New York and California. However, some New Jersey and Maryland suburbs also have high costs of living.

Although the costs in some of these suburbs are off the charts, there are still plenty of “expensive” suburbs that are quite affordable. If you want to live in Cabot, Arkansas, the state’s second-most expensive suburb, you can buy a median-priced home for just $176,122, or rent a median-priced apartment for just $864. That’s hardly expensive by the standards of most of the cities on this list, but it means that you can live quite well in Cabot for an affordable price.

Here’s a look at some of the characteristics of the most expensive suburbs in America on a state-by-state basis. For each state, suburbs are ranked in order from most expensive to least expensive.

More From GOBankingRates

Methodology: GOBankingRates analyzed the largest Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA) in each state by evaluating cities within the MSA with populations less than 100,000 (“suburbs”) along the following criteria: (1) median home list price, sourced from Zillow’s 2019 Housing Data, (2) median rent, sourced from Zillow’s September 2019 index, and (3) annual cost of living expenditures, based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ 2017-2018 Consumer Expenditure Survey and local cost of living indices sourced from Sperling’s Best Places. All factors were scored, summed up and then ranked from best to worst for each major MSA in all 50 states to quantify the most expensive suburbs in each state. Factor one was weighted 1.5 times in final calculations. The list of cities came from GOBankingRates’ “Every State’s Best Suburb” study from August 2019 which sourced its cities from U.S. Census Bureau’s 2017 American Community Survey. Suburbs must have been within 45 miles driving distance of the principal city, per Google Maps. Factors one and two were compiled and are up to date as of Nov. 6, 2019, and factor three was compiled and up to date as of July 26, 2019.
