Another ranking of the most expensive cities in the world published by Mercer Human Resource Consulting. The study involved 214 cities that were rated by experts on a scale of 200 criteria: housing prices, clothing, food, transportation, etc.

It is noteworthy that mainly Asian cities occupy leading positions in the ranking, while life in Europe is becoming cheaper due to the crisis. Among Russian cities, Moscow and St. Petersburg were in the Top 50: 4th and 28th places, respectively.

The most affordable for life for the second year in a row remains the Pakistani city of Karachi, occupying the 214th line of the rating. We bring to your attention the top ten most expensive cities in the world.

10. Nagoya (Japan)

- The first of three Japanese cities in the top ten. The country of the rising sun is traditionally famous for its high cost. The fourth largest city in Japan is famous for its attractions, so tourists are not frightened even by “biting” prices.

9. Hong Kong

regularly takes leading positions in ratings similar to today, because of fabulously expensive housing. Both apartments and hotel rooms here are characterized by small areas; only a few can afford to pay for luxury apartments.

8. Zurich (Switzerland)

traditionally considered a city for wealthy people. And the strengthening of the Swiss franc makes the cost of living here more and more expensive for foreigners. Zurich ranks third in the world for the high cost of hotels, so tourists prefer to stay in villages nearby, coming to the city only for sightseeing.

7. N'Djamena (Chad)

appeared in the ranking due to the fact that experts consider housing, products and other benefits familiar to New Yorkers as reference goods and services. In most African capitals, housing and services of this class are classified as "luxury" and cost accordingly.

6. Singapore

- ten years ago it was considered a fairly cheap city by European standards. However, life here costs one and a half times more expensive than in New York.

5. Geneva (Switzerland),

like Zurich, it retains its position in the ranking due to the high rate of the national currency. A quiet haven in the midst of crisis Europe can afford to keep prices at a high level, and, nevertheless, remain extremely attractive for both tourists and businessmen.

4. Moscow (Russia)

ranked fourth in the Mercer ranking for the third time in a row. The main contribution to the high cost of the Moscow “consumer basket” is made by the prohibitively high cost of renting decent housing. Experts also note the high cost of clothing and imported goods of international brands.

3. Osaka (Japan)

climbed three lines compared to last year. The high cost of the city is felt directly “from the doorway” - the prices for landing at the local Kansai airport are prohibitively high, for example, a fee of $ 7,500 is levied on each Boeing 747.

2. Luanda (Angola)

last year led the Mercer rating. The shortage of quality housing and the high cost of imported goods make this African capital extremely costly for living.

1. Tokyo (Japan)

– the most expensive city in the world. And if a cup of coffee in an inexpensive cafe for 8.15 US dollars is not yet shocking, then not everyone can afford to rent a two-room apartment without furniture in the Japanese capital. This pleasure is worth 4,766 US dollars per month.
