What $5,750 actually buys in KS
A headline figure only means something against local prices. At a typical KS metro's median rent of $1,201/mo, this award covers about 4.8 months of rent.
It is worth 2.5% of a median home ($225,557) and 8.6% of median household income ($66,643). Useful toward moving costs, but small next to what a year of living there costs.
What it costs to live in KS
Before the incentive, KS itself is 3 of the 48 states we cover on cost of living, counting from the cheapest, with a typical index of 89.4 (US = 100). A typical home runs $225,557 and rent $1,201/mo.
KS levies a state income tax, so weigh the one-off award against the ongoing bill. Effective property tax is around 1.3% of home value.
How this compares
At $5,750, this is the 25 th largest cash relocation offer of the 32 we track. Several programs pay more, so it is worth comparing before committing.
