City-Level Consumer Spending Data
Consumer markets are not monolithic. A country-level view misses the variation that drives real strategic decisions. World Data Lab tracks consumer spending in 7,000+ cities across 180+ countries, broken down by income group, age, generation, and spending category.
Whether you are sizing a city market, comparing urban growth trajectories, or identifying where your next consumers are emerging, our city-level data gives you the granularity to act with confidence.

Emerging Cities Globally
Example: India is big and growing quickly, but we can show how Mumbai behaves differently from Delhi and what is driving development in fast-growing cities like Pune and Surat.
The same granularity applies to cities across Southeast Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, and beyond, markets where city-level variation is often the difference between a successful entry and a missed opportunity.

How Our Clients Use Our Cities Data
Strategy and insights teams use our city-level data to:
- Prioritise which cities to enter first based on spending power and demographic growth
- Size the addressable market in a specific city before committing resources
- Benchmark consumer behaviour in their existing city portfolio against comparable markets
- Identify fast-growing secondary cities that national-level data would overlook
