Vancouver typically rates in the top 3 and is more expensive than Toronto.

Rio de Janeiro (approx. prices) Cappucino: $3 1L Petrol: $1.36 2 Movie Tickets: $20 iPod nano 16GB: $330 Monthly Rent: $2000

I'd say things are pretty expensive for no reason around here..

Abuja, Nigeria should be on there.
