Exchange Rates and Cost of Living[]
Remember Exchange rates are constantly changing so information will often be very inaccurate.
Auckland[]

Don't put Dominos. USE HELL PIZZA, it's WAY better.
Also, it's almost impossible to get a good flat white outside of NZ (or Australia). It's not a very common coffee anywhere else.

Currency comparisons are meaningless for people moving here: They're not going to get paid in the currency of their home country. The flat numbers from different places give a better idea of the cost of living.
