It would be great if you could change the units of measure to reflect the current locations
For Example - I live in Las Vegas Nv and I can look at the historical gas prices and Change to US$ BUT
It shows the cost per LITER and we do not use LITERS at our gas pump, which requires you to manually convert
EVER year listed by hand to see the COST/GAL for that year... should be consistent unit of measure for location.
Thanks

Your cost data is not accurate.Best you update your database. The incomes in LV are always way below what they should be for the cost of living, and because covid and the CA cost of living made many people from California move to Las Vegas Nevada, the real estate market scalped everyone. Rents and cost of housing went through the roof in the last few years. Unjust. Not tenable.

I hate it here. I wish I never came. I transferred my job from WI. Didn't even notice it was going to be a pay cut. Plus my cost of living is higher. I don't understand how single ppl make it here unless u are making big $$. I'm married and we are still counting pennies. I never had to do that in WI. Plus the crime is everywhere. I live in Henderson and it's so much theft it's crazy. Plus I have never in my life seen so many deaths by car! That is not normal ppl. U shld not die from car accidents! These are the worst drivers ever! Nevadans blame CA folk and CA folk blame TX...lol. I Cannot wait to have enough $$ to move. Just trying to see where I can go and live comfortable. For my health I need to be in the warm climate.

It’s more expensive to live in Vegas than what this report shows. Summers push close to 120 degrees. Housing has skyrocketed but income levels have stayed low with unemployment remaining high. Nevada is ranked last in healthcare. Crime is high, just not reported. Most people that move to Vegas move back out, it’s the city that will eat you alive if you’re not careful.
