How much space does $1 million buy you around the world?

· by · in ,

A million dollars isn’t what it used to be — especially in luxury real estate.

According to the new Knight Frank Wealth Report, $1 million buys you only 16 square meters (or about 172 square feet) in Monaco, the world’s most expensive luxury market as measured per meter. That’s down from 17 square meters (182 square feet) in 2020.

In Hong Kong, which ranks second, $1 million gets you 22.5 square meters, or about 242 square feet. New York looks downright affordable next to London, Singapore and Geneva, with $1 million getting you 33.9 square meters, or 365 square feet.
