Methodology note

Pair pages use the same city baseline model as the comparison tool: 1-bedroom rent, groceries, and transport are totaled into a monthly planning number. These estimates are useful for side-by-side research, but they should be adjusted for neighborhood, commute, household size, utilities, debt, insurance, and lifestyle.
