Top 10 World's Most Expensive Cities For Expats

To find the world cities that are costliest for expatriates, Mercer, a global research firm that advises multinational firms on the price of relocating employees, studied 214 urban centers where international firms do business. They compared the costs of over 200 everyday items that have broad international appeal. Thanks to a depreciated dollar, no U.S. cities made the list this year. Three African cities that Mercer added to its survey scored highly.
