People talk in wild terms about regional gaps in cost of living but my experience suggests the main variation is just rent. Otherwise a dollar is mostly a dollar, you're not getting discounts on cars or plane tickets because you entered an Arkansas addresshttps://twitter.com/kept_simple/status/1366801937954463748 …
Other prices do vary. Gas is cheaper in the countryside than in the suburbs or the city (something I used to keep track of when my mother lived in the DC suburbs and my father in a small town outside of Manassas, VA).

I get the sense that the spread of large chain groceries has lessened but not eliminated price variation there. But housing costs are, as I understand it, by FAR the most variable, often obscenely so.

There is variation of other kinds but it's not as predictable or - more importantly - nearly as wide as people sometimes imply. I got cheaper groceries in Chapel Hill than in Chicago but not by life-changing amounts.
