Hefei is obviously only a second-tier city. Why is consumption comparable to that of first-tier cities?

Because of the historical origin of Hefei, wages in Hefei are low and prices are high. At the same time, because Hefei is often humid, many daily necessities are more expensive!

moderate wages

In fact, when talking about Hefei, people will think that it is the capital of Anhui Province, a big city, and it should be a first-tier city, but it is not. Hefei is only a second-tier city, far behind many first-tier cities. A long time ago, Hefei was not the capital of Anhui Province! So in terms of salary level, the salary in Hefei was low at that time, but then Hefei suddenly became the capital of Anhui, and its reputation was indeed much louder than before. But his salary level has not been improved! This is the historical reason for the low wages in Hefei!

The price is high.

Influenced by surrounding big cities and first-tier cities, the housing price in Hefei is higher than that in many first-tier cities. Eggs, for example, may cost a few dollars in ordinary cities and nearly ten yuan a catty in Hefei, and other daily necessities are also ridiculously expensive. When it comes to catering, the price of catering in Hefei is even higher. The sum of the same dish taken to the northeast or Jiangnan may not be as high as Hefei!

Wet all year round

Speaking of the weather in Hefei, it can really be said that in 365 days, no more than 50 days are sunny, and most of the time is spent in a state of fog, so the transportation industry in Hefei is not very developed, which also leads to many foreign products and fruits and vegetables can not be transported to Hefei well, so the price of fruits and vegetables in Hefei is also very high. Of course, if you use some desiccant or dehumidifier, the price will be higher.

No wonder some people joke that Hefei is a foggy city, with second-line wage level and first-line consumption level!
