I heard it’s slightly higher than the U.S. average and want to budget accordingly.
How does Aurora's cost of living compare to the national average?
1 Answer
Aurora’s cost of living index is 103, which means expenses are about 3% above the national average. Housing, groceries, and utilities are modestly higher, but overall the difference is not large. When planning a budget, adjust your rent and food costs upward by a few percent, but you’ll still find the city affordable compared to many other Colorado metros.
A starting point only — it may be incomplete or out of date. Check official sources for anything important, and add your own answer if you know Aurora.
