In 2023, Bangkok led among major cities in Thailand with the highest rent index score at nearly 23 points. In comparison, Chiang Mai, the second-largest city in Thailand located in the north, scored 10.8 points.
According to the source, the index is relative to New York City, meaning each index should be 100 percent. If another city has, for example, a rent index of 120, it means that, on average, rents in that city are 20 percent pricier than in New York City. If a city has a rent index of 70, the city rents are 30 percent less expensive than in New York City.
