Expensive Asia-Pacific cities

Four cities in the top ten are in Asia, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Singapore and Mumbai.
Residential apartment prices in Hong Kong range from US$10,490 to 14,780 per sq. m., in Tokyo from US$7,600 to US$11,870 per sq. m. and in Singapore from US$11,500 to US$13,340 per sq. m.
Mumbai is a notable exception among the ten most expensive cities; it is located in a poor country, albeit rapidly growing. A mix of high population density, archaic land laws, rapid urbanization and strong
economic growth contributes to the surprisingly expensive property prices in Mumbai.

Despite equally rapid economic expansion, property prices in Bangalore are still among the cheapest in the world at US$950 – US$1,900 per sq. m..
Compared to Mumbai, Chinese cities are significantly cheaper. Prices of flats in Shanghai are around US$2,870 to US$3,540 per sq. m. while those in Beijing are priced at US$2,100 to US$2,330 per sq. m.
Properties in Australia are near the top with apartment prices in Sydney at around US$6,290 to US$9,690 per sq. m. New Zealand is significantly cheaper compared to Australia, with apartment prices in Wellington at only US$4,360 – US$4,500 per sq. m.
In South East Asia, the price of a 120 sq. m. condo in Jakarta is around US$1,073 per sq. m., cheaper compared to Kuala Lumpur (1,400 per sq. m.), Manila (US$1,969 per sq. m.) and Bangkok (US$2,819 per sq. m.).
