London Is Not As Expensive As You Think

Saturday March 24, 2007
Everyone is always telling me London is such an expensive city but at last I've got proof it's not so bad in the form of the Economist's annual worldwide cost of living survey. London was previously ranked as the 3rd most expensive city but has now dropped to 5th in the world ranking. The most expensive city in Europe and the world is actually Oslo the capital of Norway, and Asuncion in Paraguay is the cheapest. The annual cost of living survey compares the cost of a basket of goods bought in 132 cities worldwide.
