Trinidad and Tobago is a beautiful twin-island nation located in the Caribbean Sea, just off the coast of Venezuela. Trinidad is known for its vibrant culture, rich history, and lively festivals, especially the famous Carnival, where people dress in colorful costumes and dance in the streets. Tobago, on the other hand, is a smaller island known for its stunning beaches, coral reefs, and lush rainforests, making it a perfect spot for nature lovers and adventure seekers.

How we calculate these numbers

When local data is missing (e.g. salary for a smaller city), we estimate from peer cities in the same country using a median ratio.
