Calculate Cost-of-Living

Moving to a new city can be exciting and invigorating, but a change of scenery also can come with an increase in cost of living. 

Before committing to relocate — even if you have a job offer that pays more — consider the cost of living in the new location. Daily expenses such as food, parking and public transit can vary dramatically depending on where you live.
