Last year during the pandemic San Diego residents spent approximately $4,579 on entertainment, says a Consumer Expenditure Survey by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The report ranked locations based on how much of an average consumer’s annual spending went toward entertainment in 2020. That means, for a San Diego resident making an average annual pre-tax income of $110,132, about $4,579 of their $83,216 total annual went toward entertainment. Across the country, the Western region ranks second to the Midwest when it comes to average annual entertainment spending. The top spenders hail from Houston where 8.6 percent, or $6,040, of consumer spending went toward entertainment.
