Every amount in this table is an estimateestimate, derived from the World Bank price level for United States rather than quoted by any seller.
How this is calculated
A US baseline of 90, 210 and 450 USD a day for the three tiers is multiplied by the price level of United States (1, World Bank 2025) and by a city-size factor of 1, then rounded to the nearest 5 dollars. Local amounts use the World Bank exchange rate of 1 USD to the dollar, rounded to two significant digits.
These are modeled estimates, not quoted prices. Read the full formula on the methodology page.

Where the money goes
Across the three tiers, the daily budget of $90 covers basic lodging, simple meals, and local transport, while the mid-range daily figure of $210 allows for sit-down restaurant meals, paid attractions, and more comfortable lodging. At $450 a day, the luxury tier adds room for higher-end lodging and less restriction on dining and activity choices, with the same pattern repeating over a full week at $630, $1,470, and $3,150.
The cheapest and quietest stretch of the year falls in June, August, and September, when travel demand drops even though rainfall is higher, including 282mm in June and 212mm in September. All the dollar figures here are estimates meant to guide planning rather than fixed prices, and actual costs will vary by specific lodging and dining choices.
Cheapest months by climate demand: Jun, Aug and Sep.
