I like the idea! But Country-wide information can actually be not that useful - City information makes much more sense but I get that it is a lot more work and harder to gather. But for any country, the prices, weather etc etc all varies extremely widely from city to city

@bentossell Thanks! :) I guess it depends on the information and size of the country but yes - some info is more variable then other and should be broken down into states and/or cities. That's something I'm considering doing, although not sure of the method yet (because that's quite a lot more data to handle/update).

@svenkapudija yeh I get its more work and lots more data to collect. But a country as small as Wales still has a huge variety in its stats, country-wide. China would be crazy to group together. Like I said, I like the idea, I just dont think it works so well when it is country-wide info. It's a good start though!

@bentossell I am with you. The information might not apply to every city or so. Plus you might information that is too general which makes it in some way useless to the users. You also don't want too much information because too much data make the user feel overwhelmed. It's a great idea though.
