If you want to buy a house this year, you may well be paying around $199,200, the median price for a home in the U.S., according to Zillow.
That number might be lower if you if live somewhere like Ohio or Michigan, but if you happen to reside in a large coastal city such as New York or San Francisco, that number will be a lot higher. In fact, it could cost you well over $1 million to purchase a home.
To compare how far the median of $200,000 goes in different places across the country, CNBC worked with Realtor.com to check out what you can get for the same price in 10 places, from California to Kansas.
