Kormiqo provides independent, data-driven analysis of living costs, housing affordability, and purchasing power — helping citizens, researchers, and policymakers navigate the realities of modern life.
Our platform focuses on two pillars of everyday economic life — the roof over your head, and what goes on your table.
We examine price-to-income ratios, rent burdens, mortgage accessibility, and real estate market dynamics across countries to reveal where housing is within reach and where it strains household finances.
Explore dataA cross-country breakdown of spending on groceries, household goods, and basic necessities — measuring what share of income families devote to keeping their households running.
Explore dataA composite view of real purchasing power after taxes, housing, and essential spending — reflecting what residents actually retain and can use for savings, education, or discretionary consumption.
Coming soonGovernments report GDP. Financial media reports stock markets. We report on whether an average family can afford a home, pay for groceries, or save for the future.
Our indicators measure what matters at the individual and family level, not aggregate economic output.
Kormiqo is a free, non-commercial resource. We do not sell data, manage investments, or offer financial advice.
Every indicator comes with a clear description of its source, calculation approach, and known limitations.
A snapshot of recent insights from our research. Full data and methodology are available in each section.
A salary that feels comfortable in Warsaw may be barely sufficient in Zurich. A family spending 20% of income on food in the United States faces a very different situation than one spending the same share in Indonesia.
Kormiqo contextualizes these differences, allowing meaningful cross-country comparisons that go beyond raw currency figures.
