Only in Miami will you find someone living in an efficiency—but pulling up in an Audi. And according to WalletHub, we’re not alone.
Florida ranks #10 in the country for overspending on car loans. The average Floridian owes $20,123 on a car loan- and with an average income of $51,495, that eats up nearly 39% of our income.
Here’s the top 10 states where people are doing the most for the whip:
- Mississippi – 44.42%
- New Mexico – 43.23%
- Arkansas – 42.63%
- Louisiana – 41.61%

- Texas – 40.37%
- West Virginia – 40.20%
- Alabama – 39.77%

Moral of the story? Just because you can finance it, doesn’t mean you can afford it.
