Method
People who live in each city share what they paid. Every price is checked before it counts.
Anyone can add what they paid, in their own currency. No account needed. A quick automatic check keeps bots out.
Typos, wrong currencies and impossible amounts are caught. An unusual price only counts after someone else reports something similar.
We use the middle price of recent reports. When a city has only a few reports, we estimate the rest and label it "Estimated".
No reports in the last 30 days yet. When they arrive, you'll see here how many were counted, held for a second opinion or turned down.
