District of Columbia has the 3th highest price level of the 51 states and territories the Bureau of Economic Analysis measures: 10 percent over the national average overall. The premium is concentrated in housing, at 55 percent over, while goods sit 7 percent over and services 3 percent over. That matters more than the headline number, because housing is the part a tax-free stipend is meant to cover and the rest comes out of taxed wages.
