Cost of living: a key quality-of-life issue in site selection
Article Abstract:
Cost of living analyses should be conducted by companies in site selection. Quality of life in the work environment, of which cost of living is an active component, is a primary consideration for employees. In order to conserve time and effort in considering various sites, corporate real estate managers may define their cost of living requirements and then eliminate sites which do not meet these requirements. This should narrow the field of choice considerably and thus facilitate site selection.
