I just checked a cost of living comparison calculator, here, and found that the COL here in New Orleans is just 53% of the COL in San Francisco. That isn't all housing. In fact everything they list except bowling and ground beef costs more in SF than it does here.
My point is that the value of the American dollar is very different depending on where you go in the US. Sure, the exchange rate is down for you, but how much you can buy with that American dollar probably depends a lot on your destination within the US.
I wouldn't let the exchange rate keep you from enjoying travels to the U.S. Maybe this might be a good year to visit the less costly states.
