The unreserved parking rate for a month in the average American city is just over $150. But in Sacramento, it’s now reached $200. Of course, in downtown Manhattan it’s $500, and $420 in Boston, according to the 6^th annual parking survey by Colliers International. The vitality of the office market is one key to the cost of parking. As for daily parking, Sacramento’s median rate of $16 for the day is very close to the national figure. Looking for a cheap place to park? In Memphis, it’s $20 for the month … which must seem like nothing at all to an emigrant from London, where it’s nearly $900 a month in the West End.
