Numbeo

After living for more than 10 years in Zurich, Switzerland, in November 2016 I had to move to Belgrade, Serbia for professional reasons. As part of my relocation package and salary adjustment, I have started to investigate the living costs in Belgrade and came across Numbeo.com. Now after almost 12 months in Serbia, I can just say that all information I have gathered back then and took into my calculation were 100% true, sometimes too true :)

I have found this site very accurate. I used it first time a few years ago when I decided to move to Ireland, and again when we moved to Switzerland last year. It helped us to decide where to live. After a few months of living here, I compared some prices in the city with the information on the site. I have found zero mistakes. I still use it very often when traveling around Europe as it is very reliable. Great job guys!

A year ago I wanted to move in Germany and I have started using Nubmeo in that time actively. I could compare the cost of living with the city where I was previously working. Later I have found out that many recruiters were using Numbeo too, so we were easily on the same page during the salary negotiations.

I have tried similar websites but this one works the best for me. It has a minimalistic design but it has a lot of content in comparison with others. It seems that developers did a great job here and keep investing. It covers almost every city I could ever think about. I like additional tools like cost calculator and cost of living estimator.

Now when I spent almost a year in Berlin I see that all price ranges are very accurate. I hope that people will keep contributing to this website. Good job Numbeo!

I found Numbeo to be a great source of data when I was deciding to which city of Canada to move when I immigrate to this country. At first when I found out that cost of living is so much higher in Vancouver than in Toronto, I was a bit suspicious, but when I double-checked with friends of mine who already live there, it turned out to be all correct.

Very useful tool to estimate costs of living, but also to understand average salary.
I used it when I moved to Switzerland. Data are correct. Even for Switzerland where there are differences between cantons and towns.

Has more than 500 cities with data which looks very accurate. I've checked for my city and it looks about correct.

Price ranges are accurate and up to date, simple to use UI. Extremely helpful when moving to another city / state.

Quite accurate, I've checked it for my city. I do use this website when recruiters approach me with job offers. Seems very useful.
