ABOUT NUMBEO.COM

Numbeo.com was launched in April 2009 by its Founder and CEO, Mladen Adamovic (an ex-Google software engineer). Originally it was a website for crowd-sourced price comparison, but later in 2011 it started to collect data about crime, pollution, health care, and traffic. The Numbeo.com website is maintained by Numbeo doo incorporated in Serbia.

Numbeo was mentioned or used as a source in hundreds of major newspapers around the world, including Forbes, Business Insider, Time, The Economist, BBC, The New York Times, China Daily, The Telegraph. Numbeo claims to be the biggest website of its kind with more than 1.3 million data collected as of August 2014. According to Alexa‘s ranking in August 2014, Numbeo.com was among the top 10,000 websites (ranked by traffic).

Numbeo has been sometimes used by UN FAO, IMF, The World Bank and many other international organizations.

In 2012, Columnist Alistair Walsh suggested in an article written for the website Property Observer, that Numbeo’s information is based on what people say and should be taken with grain of salt. There is no third party check or audit on the accuracy of data.

Comparison against other international city data sources conducted by Ray Woodcock in 2017 suggested that Numbeo might be inaccurate on a city level, while on a country level it is more accurate. (source: wiki)
