The world's most expensive city to live in has been revealed, and it's not the tourist hot spots of London or New York.
New research has revealed that Hamilton, the capital of the tiny Atlantic island of Bermuda, is the most costly in the world to live in - for the fourth year in a row.
The study found that Hamilton has the highest prices for living costs such as transport, food and utilities. It is also ranked as having the most expensive restaurants in the world.

The Bermudan capital is one of the smallest cities in the world and attracts both residents and tourists thanks to its status as a tax haven and having spectacular scenery.
The research was released in Numbeo's mid-year Cost of Living Index, which ranks cities using New York City as standard.
Following Bermuda are five cities in Switzerland - Zurich, Basel, Lausanne, Bern and Geneva.
The Icelandic capital Reykjavik is seventh in the ranking followed by Lugano in Switzerland.
