Show HN: Compare salaries, tax, & living costs globally
Hi HN -
Like many in tech, I've thought about relocating to different cities. But comparing salaries, income tax, housing costs, and overall cost of living is hard. It's hard to know where you'd actually save up more money.
So I built a site to make it easier. It's my first HN project, hope you find it useful.
Any feedback is appreciated, thanks!

- arielcostas 2y agoThe page isn't working for me, apparently I'm getting a timeout on the 4 parallel requests to "https://geofyi.onrender.com/cities https://geofyi.onrender.com/cities"
- bentoboxop 2y agoThanks for the report! Just deployed a hot fix. Let me know if you still see any issues.
- arielcostas 2y agoSeems to be working now, thanks! Would you be able to add Madrid and Barcelona (both in Spain) please? I see many european cities but not those, sadly
- bentoboxop 2y agoYes we will add it soon :)

- verse 2y agoWould be cool if I could just input salary in USD once and see the total savings in every city, a bit more like a spreadsheet
- jangliss 2y agoThis is cool! I'd be interested to see it include more jurisdictions (I'm from Guernsey which is low tax but high rent, and I wonder how that evens out.)
