Half of a typical paycheck in Kosciusko goes to pay household bills.
That’s what DOXO, an online bill-paying service, says.
It’s added up what it costs for the most common monthly expenses, excluding food like mortgage or rent, utilities, insurance, mobile phone and cable or satellite service.
In Kosciusko, that amounts to just under $1,700 per household. That makes Kosciusko the 33rd most expensive city in Mississippi as it pertains to household bills.
And even though the average income is higher in Philadelphia, DOXO says the monthly bills come out about the same as Kosciusko, right at $1,700.
For both cities, that’s 20% less than the national average.
In Carthage, though, those same monthly bills for a typical family total less than $1,400, and that’s 35% less than the national average.
