You can do cost of living comparisons on several internet web sites. In our situation, I found that the city we are leaving is not represented correctly; our area is much more depressed and distressed than the COL comparisons accounted for.

I called quite a few service providers in Middle Tennessee to learn costs, and every. single. one. of them is MORE than what we pay here in the Midwest, yet, the COL sites said that only housing is higher in Middle Tennessee.

I am not sure the lack of a state income tax is enough to off set the increase in services, sports lessons, music lessons, instrument rentals, etc, of Middle Tennessee. We have more out of pocket costs in TN for a disabled child as well; the supports there are really lacking (and I am coming from a state not known for supports - I thought it could not be worse - I was wrong).

Do your homework which may be more than simply comparing pay rates/pay scales.
