And differences can be a magnitude apart living in different parts of the state! I live in a major east coast city, where a small rowhome in my neighborhood is 200k+ in good condition.

new houses in the state capitol 2 hours away? No problem coming in under 100K.

So COL varies wildy even within a state, as is no surprise.

I don't disagree, this is just making my point even more :) And reinforces the original comment that a minimum wage that doesn't take these disparities into account may simply be a death blow for a lot of small businesses in low CoL areas.
