Anecdotally this seems true to me—when moving to London 4 years ago I was taken aback by the cost, but recent visits to my hometown of Sydney has also surprised me at how much it's "caught up" with London.
Bit surprised Moscow is lower than London—it cost the earth when I was there a couple of years ago.
- nagrom 17y agoIn the article, Moscow's drop in price is attributed to the drop in the Rouble against the Dollar...this feels right to me also since Russia has been less openly aggressive recently, which would lead to a cheaper cost of living I guess.
