Reported by CNBC: New York City is used as the base city for all comparisons, and currency movements are measured against the U.S. dollar.
U.S. cities did not figure in this year’s top ten, however. Aside from Asia, Europe and Africa dominated the list. Switzerland’s capital Bern ranked as the tenth most expensive city, followed by Beijing, China (9); N’Djamena, Chad (8); Shanghai, China (7); and Luanda, Angola (6).
