1. Best for Budgeting! Mississippi
Considered the best state for people on a budget, Mississippi lives up to its reputation and can boast about the lowest annual cost of all the states on our list!

With an average of $39,633 spent each year, you will have a problem finding someplace that’s more budget-friendly! What’s more, people only pay around $6,500 for housing costs, with only $3,400 being used for utilities!
