How much money is needed to cover living in SW broward?

We are planning on moving to south west broward (Weston, pembroke pines, cooper city etc..). İ have not lived in the states for almost 18 years and have no idea what the cost of living is. We are a family of 4 (2 teen boys who eat 24/7) How much money will we need to live on food, water, electric, insurance for 2 cars (normal cars nothing exotic) gas, homeowners insurance etc.. Any feed back will be appreciated. We will not need to pay a mortgage or rental . Just everyday living expense

1. How much you spend depends on what your income is as well as where you live. The area you have chosen has higher real estate values than average so you would probably need more the the median income to live there. Here is the way people at various income level spend their money and it would not vary much from the national average in FL. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/10/opinion/10cox.html?ex=1360299600&en=9ef4be7de32e4b53&ei=5090&partner=rssuserland&emc=rss&pagewanted=all
