2. Tax & social security — calculated using the progressive income tax brackets and social security rates for each city's country.
3. Take-home converted to USD — using ECB reference rates for a like-for-like comparison.
4. Rent deducted — average 1-bedroom rent for each city (USD/month) is subtracted to show after-rent disposable income.
5. Real purchasing power — after-rent disposable income is adjusted by the city's actual non-rent cost basket (groceries, utilities, transport, healthcare) relative to New York. This avoids double-counting rent and uses granular per-category data rather than a blunt cost-of-living index.
