Residents of Midville that believe their town has a higher cost of living than nearby towns are wrong. Why are they wrong? They are only focusing on one factor (higher taxes) and neglecting how other factors (services provided by these taxes, the price of those services in nearby towns) affect the cost of living.

The conclusion is a rejection of the belief that Midville has a higher cost of living than nearby towns: “These people are mistaken.”

This is a good restatement of the author’s conclusion. The author disagrees with people who believe Midville is more expensive, so the author believes Midville isn’t more expensive.

This isn’t stated or suggested in the argument. We know that Midville taxes are higher, but we don’t know if residents think they’re too high.

This statement is way too broad and sweeping for the scope of this argument. The author is just concerned with Midville vs. nearby towns, not the general comparison of public vs. private services.

The author isn’t concerned with awareness. She is evaluating the accuracy of a belief—truth and falsehood are unaffected by awareness.

The argument does not contain any information about whether or not Midville residents make use of all of the town’s services.
