Where these figures come from. Every number on this page is reproduced from a government body, a public transport operator, an airport authority or a national statistics office, and links back to the exact publication and the period it describes. We don't use cost-of-living aggregators. Where an official source doesn't publish something, the page says so rather than estimating.
