14 Underlying data points Total sample size (different prices, surveys, products,...) used to create the report: Number of prices used in the calculation: 3 573 Number of surveys: 1 094 Categories included in the calculation: 6 Items included in the calculation: 53 Methodology Expatistan collects data continuously through an online survey available to expatriates at expatistan.com. The survey gathers constantly updated price points for a wide set of products and services representative of expatriates common expenses. The collected data undergoes validation, statistical analysis and testing. It is cross-checked and enhanced with data from other sources available online, including the UN Statistics Division and the World Bank. Spurious data is detected and discarded. The index is calculated net-to-net, excluding taxes other than those charged at the moment of payment, such as sales or value-added taxes. Inflation rates are used to update data when appropriate. More information on the methodology can be found at expatistan.com. Category weights Food: 19% Housing: 32% Clothes: 6% Transportation: 22% Personal Care: 6% Entertainment: 15% Products and services included in the index The Expatistan cost of living index is based on a basket containing 53 products and services representative of the goods and services that a representative expatriate purchases on a regular basis. Brands, qualities and locations of the products in the basket are tailored to expatriate communities rather than to local residents. All reported prices include local taxes paid at the time of purchase, such as sales or value added taxes, where applicable. The products in the index are grouped into the following categories: food, housing, clothing, transportation, personal care and entertainment. Some products and categories are not covered by the cost of living index. These include: Health care Taxes Education Travel Insurance Furniture Jewelery Illegal substances and services Note on exchange rates Exchange rates are used to convert prices in the destination city into the home city s currency before the index is calculated. The exchange rates used in this report are those reported by the Yahoo! Finance Currencies Center on the day the report is issued. In countries where the official exchange rate is artificially set and the real exchange rate used in everyday transactions is significantly different from the official rate (in Venezuela, for example), an alternative or parallel rate may be used.
