    Why Costs Vary by City

    Cambodia's cost of living varies significantly by location. Phnom Penh and Sihanoukville are about 10% above average due to higher demand. Islands like Koh Rong carry a 25% premium because supplies must be shipped in. Provincial cities like Battambang and Kampot offer 5-10% savings below the national average.

    The multiplier of 0.95x for Kampot is applied to all base costs to give you a city-adjusted estimate.
