Lagos Is ‘Sixth Least Expensive City In The World’
Lagos has been ranked as the sixth cheapest city in the world to live in, according to the Economist Intelligence Unit survey.
The survey compares more than 400 individual prices across 160 products and services. These include food, drink, clothing, household supplies, and personal care items, home rents, transport, utility bills, private schools, domestic help, and recreational costs
The report said it has some correlation with its sister ranking, the global livability survey and thereby confirmed Lagos as being less livable.
Using New York as its standard, Lagos ranked sixth on the list of ten cheapest cities in the world alongside Karachi the capital and most populous city in Pakistan.
