According to a report from Patch, "The study conducted by New Jersey real estate firm The Robert Dekanski Team looked at several factors to determine how much it would cost a person to live in several New Jersey cities. 

Researchers analyzed several factors:

  • Average annual income 
  • Property Costs
  • Childcare
  • Food
  • Transportation

"Each factor was then assigned a score for a possible overall total of 100. The lower the overall score, the more it costs to live there, according to the study."
