Happy World Food Day! We love any excuse to get together and eat good food, so we’re pretty stoked this holiday exists.
Eating well on a budget, however, can be tough. If you’re a true foodie, gourmet groceries and nice dinners out can quickly gobble up your discretionary funds.
The cost of eating well varies greatly depending on where you live — so to help you find cities that appease both your wallet and your stomach, WalletHub recently released the best and worst food cities for foodies on a budget.
Where Should Food Lovers Live?
To come up with the rankings, WalletHub analyzed the affordability (factors like the cost of groceries and alcohol, and the prevalence of affordable and well-rated restaurants) and diversity, accessibility and quality (factors like number of restaurants, farmers markets and coffee shops per capita) of the 150 biggest American cities.
Based on those factors, the best cities for people who want to eat amazing food at affordable prices are:
- Portland
- Orlando
- San Francisco
- Oakland
- Seattle
Don’t live on the West Coast? Don’t be too jealous of their dominant positions on the list; you’re lucky when it comes to prices. Indianapolis and Omaha have the cheapest wine and beer, while four cities in Texas topped the cheapest groceries list.
Not to mention, these cities also fared well:
- Cincinnati
- Rochester
- Pittsburgh
- St. Louis
- Madison
