Why Exchange Rates Aren’t Enough to Compare Salary Offers
Thinking of moving countries or negotiating an international job offer? Simply converting to salary offers using exchange rates gives a misleading picture of your real purchasing power. Cost of living, taxes, and quality of life vary dramatically across countries.
What Makes CrunchMySalary Different?
We use globally trusted metrics to compare salary across different countries to show what your job offer is really worth in an international destination or expat assignment:
- Purchasing Power Parity (PPP): Adjusts for local prices and what your money can actually buy.
- Human Development Index (HDI): Reflects quality of life, education, and health standards.
- Personal Tax Rates: Considers tax implications on your actual take-home salary.
- Lending Rates: Factors in your credit and borrowing power based on location.
Built with Transparent, Reliable Data CrunchMySalary sources all its insights from World Bank and UNDP data. We don’t use affiliate links or biased data — just clean, trusted global metrics.
