The cost of living in Illinois is slightly less than the national average, about 5.5% less. Illinois is quite affordable outside of Chicago and can be a great place to retire. In almost all areas, Illinois has a lower cost of living. However, one area where Illinois is more expensive is transportation. Suppose you don't need to go anywhere. In that case, however, the state is quite affordable, especially in the housing department, where it's nearly 15 points below the national average and almost $100K cheaper than the rest of the country. So check out Illinois and see if it fits within your budget.
