More than one-third of all households in San Diego County are not earning enough to make basic ends meet, according to a study by United Ways of California. The study uncovers the real cost of living here in the Golden State. It took into account housing, food, child care, transportation and health care. San Diego resident Chelsea Olsen is a single mother with four children, ranging in age from 14 months to 16 years. "It's impossible, impossible," she said. "Unless you have three jobs. I had three jobs and I still wasn't able to make enough." Olsen's three-bedroom apartment along the freeway costs her more than $4,400 a month. "My parents actually have to pay my rent, because i can't afford it," she said. On top of that, there's food for her family. "I just spent $200 on food and I only got two dinners," she told CBS 8. She also needs fuel for the car. "My gas costs $120 to fill this baby, and it's every three days." This new study finds that for a family of four in San Diego County with two adults and two kids, it costs over $110,000 a year for a decent standard of living. Single moms, households of color and seniors are disproportionately impacted, according to this report. In Olsen's case, as a single mom, that number is more than $147,000. It's far from what she's able to provide.
