Cost of Living Index

Accurate and reliable cost of living comparisons across the region.

The Lee County Economic Development Office (EDO) participates in the quarterly cost of living index survey with the Council for Community & Economic Research (C2ER) to accurately gauge the affordability and economic vitality of the Cape Coral – Fort Myers metropolitan statistical area. This collaborative effort helps the EDO identify areas of economic opportunity and improvement for the community. 

Florida Power & Light offers a cost of living calculator through its WonderFL website to determine the change in expenditures for moving across regions within the state of Florida, which uses data from the C2ER.
