Which Cities Have the Highest ATM Fees?

ATM fees have become even more of a budget buster in the last year, especially in cities like Seattle, Denver, Houston and Miami where fees ATM owners charge non customers are, on average, 30 cents or more higher than in other parts of the country, a recent Bankrate study found.

Bankrate's 2010 Checking Study found the highest ATM fees in Seattle, where the average fee is $2.69, 36 cents higher than the national average of $2.33. Since we're talking averages, that means some folks in Seattle are actually paying as much as $4 a pop when they visit an ATM that isn't part of their bank's network.
