Yes. The living wage for workers in New York City is different from the living wage in Tulsa, Oklahoma, which is different from the living wage in Nashville, Tennessee. The cost of living in each city — housing and utility costs, taxes, etc. — is a significant factor in the calculation of a living wage.
