I am looking for a website that I can find cost of living in my city in California and refrence to it in my official claim. Is there any one?

You could use the GSA adjustment map, which for example lists the Bay Area as 42.67% higher than the base pay. They have 53 rating areas. (Note: this linked map itself isn’t official, but it is using the official information.)

This likely understates the true cost of living difference, but it’s the best official government site I know of.

OPM’s official tables are also available, though less easy to use of course.
