Just look at the average home values in the four corners of the country, according to Zillow and current as of June 2024.
Seattle, $886,253. Boston, $750,219. San Diego, $1,032,804. And Miami, $575,859.
But if you’re sold on living on the East Coast, you could find hidden gems in states up and down the Atlantic seaboard, where an annual salary of $100,000 would allow you to build a comfortable life.
GOBankingRates used information and statistics from U.S. News & World Report’s Best Places to Live in the U.S. in 2024-25 , Zillow (average home values), the U.S. Census Bureau and Sperling’s Best Places (cost of living and income to live comfortably) to come up with a list of the 10 Most Affordable Cities on the East Coast if You Make Under $100,000.
All of them have an average home value less than the national average of $358,734, and the cost of living is below the national average – in some cases, well below – in nine of the 10 locations. Maybe one of them will suit you if you consider a new East Coast residence .
