Reading this table. Each “what it means” note states the size and direction of the gap, not a winner. Hardship is the UN ICSC classification; Real UN Purchasing Power is a UNjobnet estimate. Family suitability and Relocation difficulty are UNjobnet estimates — national guides, not verdicts, as each duty station has its own arrangements. Sources: UNDP HDR, World Bank, UNODC & WHO, and UN ICSC post adjustment.
