Comment on What is the worst US state to live in generally?
atempuser23@lemmy.world 10 months agoWhere do you live to see prices like that? Gas is 4.80 or so and no fast food is $15. That maybe is a fast casual restaurant.

ARCO nearby is at $5.99/gal for Premium. Shell across the street is $5.79/gal Premium.
Yesterday went to Carl’s Jr and ordered two Super Star w Cheese meals, no additional items and had to pay $32, so Id say pretty close to $15 per meal.
Orange County, where these prices would be expected.

Sounds like you live in an expensive pocket, like near beach or a special neighborhood.
Use google to find gas near you it lists out prices . I was just in garden grove yesterday. Gas was 4.80 to 5.20. If you are driving a sports car that needs premium gas your going to pay more to enjoy more .
I took my extended family out in garden grove , 7 people for dinner at $130 before tip to a decent sit down place. McDonalds and Taco Bell at 6-10 for a meal.
Even near Disney in Anaheim prices are better than you listed out. I can grab a full meal at Denny’s for about 12-15.
When I first moved to ca I lived in a cool community where I could afford rent. Daily life was so expensive I was riding the bus an hour to get groceries.
Now pay more in rent and less in everything else in a boring place. Moving a few miles will make a difference for you.
