What changes this most?
Use this profile as a consistent basket when comparing two locations so category definitions do not drift.
Sensitivity check
A roughly 10% move in housing / month changes the modeled headline result by up to $170 in this setup.
Every category is user-entered. Replace defaults with your household's own figures.
Use the number fields, sliders, or a quick preset. You can fully clear a field while editing.
Formula
Recurring household categories are summed into monthly and annual modeled cost.
This is a user-defined household basket. It deliberately avoids pretending that one average basket represents every single person, couple or family.
Editable rates, growth assumptions, prices, fees, and percentages are planning inputs unless the calculator explicitly identifies a current source.
