Frequently Asked Questions

What is a cost of living index?

An index (e.g. 100 = baseline) compares how expensive a city is relative to another. You can use data from sites like Numbeo or Expatistan—enter the index values for your current and target city.

Can I use my own categories?

This calculator uses a single overall index. For housing vs food vs transport, you’d need to weight each category yourself or use a multi-factor comparison tool.
