The current economic issue I chose is the cost of living prices. In Ohio the cost of living is actually 11% lower than the national average. As of March 2023, the average price of an Ohio home is $205,800. The average cost of living for a family is $48,000 and for a single person is $13,727. The prices of houses in Ohio can change depending on the region it is in. If you were to live in Columbus or Cincinnati it would be more than average. The average cost of utilities a month is $472. In other states that are around the national average or higher may need way more money than they think to be able to afford a house in America right now. It will all depend on how big your family is and what your lifestyle is like to choose what house you want. Today in the USA the prices of houses are not going to be cheaper. It will take a lot of planning to commit to buying a house. how to reply to this
