Is it cheaper to fly to Rome or Florence?

Flying to Rome or Milan is rarely more than $50-$100 cheaper than flying to FLR. If I don't need to go to Rome, that saving is not worthwhile for me. That is because flying to Rome will entail having to take the train back and forth (over $100) and also spend my last night in Rome to catch the morning flight out.
