How we calculated this

The breakdown uses live PriceRadar data wherever possible: rent medians, NBS petrol prices, NBS cooking gas prices, NERC electricity tariffs, and Jiji.ng grocery medians. City multipliers come from NBS regional CPI indices.

What we don't deduct: PAYE tax, pension contributions, NHF, NHIS. Enter your take-home (post-deduction) salary for an accurate breakdown. Estimates are typical mid-range for the city + lifestyle pair — your actual rent/food spending may vary ±30%.

Use this as a sanity check, not gospel. PriceRadar refreshes the underlying feeds daily for FX + petrol, monthly for gas + electricity, weekly for rent + groceries.
