Home prices in Jersey are lower than in California, though, with the median value of Jersey homes at $278,600. If you're looking for a home to purchase in the Northern state, the median list price is just under $300K, or $174 per square foot. Rent is exceptionally high, with the median monthly rent at $1,800. If you rent in an area like Princeton, you may have to pay $275 or so for utilities in a tiny apartment.

In each state, however, this $75,000 has to be adjusted to account for costs of living differences. A few states, however, like Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Nevada, Florida, and Wisconsin are right around the benchmark.
