MONTEVIDEO HIGHLIGHTS

Montevideo accounted for 69% of Uruguay's total GDP in 2016. Most of the country's business service activities, highly qualified workforce and infrastructure (including Uruguay's major port), are concentrated in the city. Montevideo's labour productivity was 52% higher than in the rest of Uruguay in 2016, mainly due to a highly skilled and educated domestic labour force.

Per household disposable income exceeded the average for the rest of the country despite marginally lower employment rate

The city registers a marginally lower employment rate than the rest of Uruguay, at 73% versus 78% in 2016. However, Montevideo's per household disposable income level exceeded the average for the rest of the country by 53% in that year.

Higher spending on recreation and culture, hotels and restaurants, and education

Consumer expenditure per household (excluding transport and housing) in Montevideo was 27% higher than elsewhere in Uruguay in 2016. This reflects higher spending on categories such as recreation and culture, hotels and restaurants, and education by households in the city, in addition to the considerable influx of tourists into Montevideo, which is the country's top tourist destination.

Expensive housing

Average per household spending on housing in Montevideo reached USD9,000 in 2016. This was a result of high demand (both domestic and foreign) for property in Montevideo since the mid-2000s. Expensive housing has pulled up the cost of living in the city, with combined spending on housing and transport per household exceeding the country's average by 39% in 2016.
