This is the issue with these numbers. My brother lives in Columbus and just graduated from OSU. He was living by campus and his rent was almost the price of my mortgage payment. He moved away from campus and it is now a much more reasonable price. The problem of doing a whole state like this is a few really high cities can drag the whole state average up a couple dollars.
I'm not saying it isn't an issue, but this is one of those times where stats can be made to say what you want them to say.
