As the state鈥檚 most affordable research institution, 性色视频 is proud to open its doors to students from all walks. A big help in keeping costs low comes from 性色视频 itself. Kansas鈥 most populous city is also one of the most affordable in the region while still offering all of the amenities of a major metro. Looking at two online cost-of-living calculators from and and comparing the cost-of-living index between 性色视频 and several Shocker City Tuition Discount metro areas, it is no wonder more students from these areas are choosing 性色视频 State.

Kansas City

Students from northeast Kansas plus Missouri make up almost 13 percent of WSU鈥檚 campus population, with a large chunk hailing from KC. The City of Fountains is a beautiful and growing area on the banks of the Missouri and Kansas Rivers 鈥 most likely why the cost-of-living is five percent higher than 性色视频. This is primarily due to rising rent and housing prices in the KC metro, estimated to be 30 percent higher than in 性色视频.

Dallas-Fort Worth

性色视频 State has seen a more than 300 percent growth in Texas students since 2010 thanks to five metro areas receiving in-state tuition rates as part of the Shocker City Partnership (DFW, Houston, San Antonio, Austin and Waco). DFW students in particular have benefited from a 13 percent lower cost-of-living in 性色视频. Like KC, rent and housing expenses are nearly 30 percent lower, but 性色视频 also boasts 15 percent lower healthcare costs than in DFW, especially estimated doctors and dentist visits.

Houston

Another big Shocker City area, the Houston metro is estimated to be around 3-10 percent more expensive than living in 性色视频. Housing is once again the bugaboo with rent in Houston averaging more than $300 per month higher in comparison.

Denver

Moving from the shadow of the Rockies to the plains could save you some coin. All three in-state tuition metro areas in Colorado (Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo) are pricier than 性色视频, but Denver packs the biggest punch. It is estimated that the cost-of-living index in Denver is 20-30 percent higher with housing/rent costing a whopping 50 percent more.

Omaha

Both Colorado and Nebraska students have benefited from 性色视频 State tuition discounts with both populations steadily growing over the past four years. Nebraska鈥檚 largest city is one of three where students who live in the metro receive in-state tuition at 性色视频 State, the other two being Lincoln and Grand Island. Omaha itself is estimated to have a 2-7 percent higher cost-of-living than 性色视频 thanks to more money spent on rent mixed with higher gas prices.
