It depends on what the cost-of-living index is taking into account. Most are from the perspective of a Westerner considering how much one would spend if one lived elsewhere- meaning cars, upscale housing, etc are all important factors.

London is ranked #2 this year but I lived there as a student and spent relatively little money.

Depends on the lifestyle and it's always easier to spend less money as a local.
