looked at the cities where couples could save the most by moving in together, and cities where it won't save all that much. The site found that couples in Cincinnati, Ohio; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; and Louisville, Kentucky would save the least by moving in together. The data estimates that couples in these three cities will save less than $300 per person each month by moving in together.
The Black Tux calculated these estimates by comparing half of the cost of a two-bedroom apartment to the full cost of a one-bedroom apartment, and also looked at the average costs of bills that could be split, like utilities and internet. Then, these data points were combined and ranked. Checubus/Shutterstock
