Per gallon and per liter; the changes are per gallon. Neither column is today’s pump price. Station average: what stations charged on average in September, published a few weeks later; the change is from August. Wholesale: what stations pay their supplier, the lowest and highest of 14 wholesalers; the change is the middle of that range since Oct 14. Sources: DACO survey · DACO wholesale prices.

Every town, side by side

Tap or click a column heading to sort. Every town links to its “Living in” page: rent, home value and income against the median town, plus commute, broadband, schools, water and safety. A dash means the Census suppressed that estimate. For commute, broadband, schools and safety too, see Living in Puerto Rico, town by town.

What the averages hide

Sales tax runs 11.5%

  • Puerto Rico's sales-and-use tax (IVU) is 11.5% (10.5% commonwealth + 1% municipal), higher than any U.S. state's base rate.
  • Some categories carry reduced rates or exemptions (unprepared food, prescription medicines); verify current carve-outs with Hacienda before budgeting around them.

Electricity is the budget shock

  • Residential electricity rates run well above the U.S. average (historically roughly double), so air-conditioning-heavy homes see mainland-unfamiliar bills. It's the main reason rooftop solar + battery is everywhere.
  • Rates change every quarter with fuel-cost adjustments; LUMA's rate schedule and the EIA's state comparison carry the current numbers.
  • From October 1, 2026, a general residential bill at 800 kWh a month is $271, up from $229 in July to September 2026 (+18.5%), per the Puerto Rico Energy Bureau resolution and order of September 30, 2026. What the new rate costs at home.

Groceries and goods carry the Jones Act premium

  • Cargo between U.S. ports must move on U.S.-built, U.S.-flagged ships (the Jones Act), which raises shipping costs to the island: groceries, appliances, vehicles, and building materials all price above mainland norms.
  • Local produce, restaurants, and services are where the island is genuinely cheaper; the premium concentrates in imported goods.

How to read the table

  • Figures are ACS 5-year medians: a stable multi-year blend, not this month's listings. Hot coastal markets (Condado, Dorado, Rincón) have moved faster than any survey captures.
  • A dash means the Census suppressed the estimate (sample too small), common for home values in the smallest towns.
  • Median household income context matters: a town with $500 median rent and $18,000 median income is cheap to outsiders and expensive to its own residents. That tension is the housing debate in one row.

Common questions

How much does it cost to live in Puerto Rico?
Housing is the big saving. As of 2020–2024 ACS 5-Year Estimates, Puerto Rico's median gross rent is about $578 a month versus $1,413 on the U.S. mainland, and the median home value is $131,500 versus $332,700. The trade-offs: median household income is lower (about $26,297 a year), and imported goods, electricity, and a 11.5% sales tax push everyday costs up.
Is Puerto Rico cheaper than the mainland United States?
On housing, clearly yes: median rent and home values run well below mainland figures. But groceries, cars, and most consumer goods are shipped in (the Jones Act adds a premium), electricity is expensive, and the 11.5% sales tax is higher than any U.S. state's base rate. Whether it's cheaper overall depends on your lifestyle and how much you buy imported.
What is the sales tax in Puerto Rico?
Puerto Rico's sales-and-use tax (IVU) is 11.5% (10.5% commonwealth + 1% municipal), higher than any U.S. state's base rate. Most goods and many services are taxed; some groceries and prescription medicines are exempt.
Do you pay U.S. federal income tax if you live in Puerto Rico?
Bona fide residents of Puerto Rico generally do not pay U.S. federal income tax on income sourced within Puerto Rico; they file locally with Hacienda instead. Act 60 offers additional incentives for qualifying new residents and businesses; see our Act 60 explainer for the eligibility and obligations.
