Family Budget Calculator

[finehoe]

EPI's Family Budget Calculator measures the income a family needs in order to attain a secure yet modest standard of living. The budgets estimate community-specific costs for 10 family types (one or two adults with zero to four children) in 618 locations. Compared with the federal poverty line and Supplemental Poverty Measure, EPI's family budgets provide a more accurate and complete measure of economic security in America.

For Jacksonville, it says a 2 adult, 2 kid household needs $66,321 a year.
