They forgot to include Antarctica as a desert

Comfortable cost of living is subjective and needs context

[Crusty_Camper]

The Sahara is relatively recent. There are rock paintings in the middle of the desert showing giraffes and other grassland animals. The porcupines were separated as the climate changed.

The Anchorage one really did change the way I see the world!!

As a Wisconsin resident and a former Pennsylvania resident, this is BS. That kind of money isn’t comfy, that’s luxury

[KenBober]

The Sahara desert was a grassy wet land 10k years

[conradblack]

The average family income in the us is less than 80 grand a year. You do not need to be making anywhere close to any of those figures to live comfortably in almost all states. Most of those figures would put you in the top 1% globally for family income

Sahara was all green 6, 000 years ago so porcupines were all over the Sahara back then but got pushed to the lush edges.

[JPeaslee]

I live in New Hampshire my family total Makes maybe 140K and we live very comfortably

Speaking of obesity in this country, RFK's speech that he gave yesterday was mind-blowing! The pre-diabetic and obesity statistics that he was throwing out are off the charts. The Man spoke for 48 minutes and I learned so much!!

I really question some of these maps. The first seems to indicate upper middle class incomes or higher. You can live quite comfortably for half or less of the amount listed for Ohio.

For the crested porcupine, the heck with the Sahara. That probably happened a couple of tens of thousands of years ago when it was plains. How did they get to Italy, Sardinia, and Corsica?

My household income is about $65K a year, and I live in Georgia. I own a house, woodshop, 10 acres of land, 4 vehicles, an RV, and a boat. I don't know where this guy gets his sources from, but they are hot garbage.

India being in green for not being fat is crazy (i am an Indian)

[scottapache]

That is not the income you need to live comfortably in each state. That is the income you need to live comfortably in the most expensive city in those states. I make half of what my state said and my family is comfortable.

[DominoGaming]

How you see the world. Proceeds to show maps of the USA

[stephenp]

That household income one is off... i live in NC my father never made over 50k and i only get 26k and im comfortable.

[troyf.]

I'm a single black man in NYC making a little over $120k a year(life is fun asf!). You can live comfortably.... Trust Me!!

[BryanSchaeber]

When billionaires tell you they deserve their money because "they took a risk"... dont forget that the "risk" they took is becoming a worker like YOU.

[TheReal-HankSchrader]

My family growing up had the nicest house out of anyone in my whole class in school and most friends, but that came to around 200k a year for my parents together and this is in Minnesota. No way you need that much to be comfortable lmao

[onothankyou]

The Sahara is quite new as a desert. The porcupine developed, then the desert sliced the population apart. Over a very long time, new speciation!
