Thanks to all who sent links to the much talked about MarketWatch report:

“Here are the 10 cities where it is most expensive for two parents to raise two children …

1. Washington, D.C.

A family of four needs $106,493 just to get by in Washington — making this city the most expensive place for parents to raise two children. Child care here is particularly pricey, at $31,158 a year, on average — that’s the highest in the country.”
