No single factor decides it — scope, materials, access and timing all move the total, and the biggest swings usually come from access and scheduling. It is worth testing that against a couple of quotes in your area.
Is New Kitchen cheaper in smaller cities?
Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. The answer can shift with the your area market, so check locally.
How many quotes should I get for new kitchen?
Two or three written quotes are enough to see the real market range. Compare the same scope side by side, and ask each provider what is excluded and what would change the price after the quote is accepted. In your area, that is worth confirming with a local provider before you commit.
