* Cost of Living Index reflects
the relative cost of goods in
grocery stores, visits to res-
taurants, use of transport and
payment of utility services.
** Local purchasing power
shows the relative purchas-
ing power when purchasing
goods and services in a given
city for the average salary of
residents. Index 40, for exam-
ple, means that residents can
afford an average of 60% less
goods and services than New
Yorkers.
