Cost of Living China vs. India

I came across a visualization of the cost of living in China vs. India on Voronoi today – it offers some good insights, so I decided to visualize it in my own way.

My Visualization

I chose the Gantt chart again, as it is a great way to show the difference between two categories and across multiple line items.

Insights

  • As the monthly net salary is higher in China, most things on the list are more expensive in China, with the exception of Cappuccino and beer;
  • The item that has the highest cost difference is the monthly fitness club membership – it costs almost 3x in China ($41.25 vs. $14.75).
