## What is CityCost?

CityCost helps digital nomads, remote workers, expats, and travel planners compare city costs fast - so you can pick the right base, plan a realistic budget, and avoid surprises. Check real city data, rent, groceries, and transport prices, then run a quick city comparison to see which place fits your plan.

What you can compare
• Rent prices and apartment prices (typical monthly costs)
• Grocery prices, restaurant prices, and a simple coffee price check
• Transport pass, local transit costs, fuel prices (gas/petrol) and taxi (where available)
• Utilities and internet cost (electricity, water, heating, mobile/ISP)
• Everyday living expenses summarized for quick decisions
• View in your preferred currency with automatic currency exchange

Income & value
