If you talk about Urban living, the costs are universally high, and only get worse once you have a family.
Suburbs get a bad rap, but they are way more economical once you have kids. And not everyone has to commute. Plenty of us work from home or work in nearby Suburban office parks.
I live in Dallas where costs are similar to Atlanta. Living in the Bay Area would mean four times the cost for family friendly housing at maybe a 40% increase in salary.
