What are you talking about? No one said all college grads live anywhere. Good grief. Low cost areas typically have lower wages as well. Plenty of college grads are making minimum wage. Even that will vary by state and even city to city in some states.
 
Then what case are you trying to make? If it isn't just the college grads living in the expensive areas, and they make $20k more than the non-college grads who are living in the same area, why are the college grads forced to live paycheck to paycheck?
