Its called average, just like when they determine the average pay, they count the smuck making $8/hr as well as the guy making millions.. but sure certain areas can skew the entire state's numbers.
States like CO are wrong though, because Denver is one of the highest price places in the country. You are looking at $2k+ to rent a 2 bedroom home in a shitty area. If they count apartments then maybe $1,2k to 1,5k would be the lower end stuff.
Yet they are showing CO as just a dollar diffrence from FL. The high price beach condos for sure skew the prices in FL because FL isn't as expensive as CO.
