    This is very difficult. We have Starbucks in our country, and rent is 3 times or less than $1500 and would assume the budget for homeless folks is approaching zero. So given context and accuracy of housing numbers, those averages are meaningless.

    All in all, they are just selling overprice coffee in our city. You can get better coffee at the next coffee shop for 3 to 4 times less.

      Here in southern Italy we have it good: coffee for 80 cents or so is common, and more than 1€ is seen as overpriced. No one really dares to sell it at more than that because, simply, no one will buy it :)
