Varies Greatly
Hello!
We've found that costs vary greatly, even among people who have done the same type of adoption. Foster/adopt is definitely the cheapest route.
We did a domestic adoption through a private agency (whom I do not recommend), and all of the adoption costs, travel, legal, etc. will be close to $30K. And yes, we adopted a bi-racial baby, so, bi-racial babies aren't necessarily less expensive to adopt. It all depends on your circumstances, I think.
Good luck!

Child #1: Is that your mother?
Child #2: Yes.
Child #1: Why is she white and you are black?
Child #2: Because I am adopted, and black people have more melanin than white people do.
Child #1: Oh, let's go on the high bars.
