Why It Matters
Did you know?
Relocating Can Be Expensive — Or Empowering
A $10K raise might disappear in a high-tax city. A cheaper city might cost more in the long run.
We help you decode the true cost of your next move.
According to a 2025 study by AnytimeEstimate, 70% of Americans who moved in 2024 regretted it — with many citing unexpected financial burdens as a key reason.
That’s exactly why City Shift exists: to help you plan smarter, avoid hidden costs, and relocate with confidence.

Client Testimonial
Tech Professional Moving from Las Vegas to Seattle
“City Shift saved me from making a $7,200/year mistake. The higher salary in Seattle looked great until they showed me how much more I’d spend on rent, taxes, and daily costs. I ended up staying in Vegas and remote working — best decision I’ve made.”
— Jason L., Software Engineer
Healthcare Worker Moving from Chicago to Atlanta
“I was close to signing a lease in Chicago, but City Shift’s report helped me realize I’d save over $500 a month by relocating to Atlanta. That’s $6,000 a year — and now I can actually breathe financially.”
— Marisol G., Registered Nurse
Creative Freelancer Moving from New York to Austin
““I thought I was managing in NYC, but my City Shift report made it clear I could save nearly $9,000/year in Austin — even with a slightly lower income. Now I have space, peace, and more disposable income.”
— Alex W., Designer & Freelancer
