London, the most expensive city
We've all heard the story-worthy dream before -- ditch the small, quaint town for the big, bustling city and live the glamorous life.
But when monthly rent costs you $4,250 and public transportation for the month comes in at about $215, is the glamorous life still really worth it? If you still say yes, one of these cities might be the home for you.
According to a team at Expatistan, which calculated a "cost of living index" (see below for more) for hundreds of global cities, these wallet-busting metros are the most expensive based on their current costs of housing, clothes, transportation, medicine and food.
And while they do have their perks, ranging from affordable health care to gorgeous landmarks like Central Park, they'll certainly cost you a pretty penny along the way.
