About Us

City Shift Finance was founded by finance, operations, and data analytics experts who recognized that relocation, one of life’s biggest financial decisions, is often made with incomplete or misleading information.

Each year, over 8 million Americans move across state lines, spending nearly $38 billion of their own money. At the same time, companies invest more than $53 billion in relocating employees. That is a $71 billion relocation economy, too large, too personal, and too costly to get wrong.

We created City Shift Finance to fix that. Our platform delivers tailored relocation insights that go far beyond basic averages. We factor in cost of living, housing, taxes, transportation, and neighborhood-specific economic risks, giving individuals and organizations the clarity they need to make confident, financially sound moves.

Our CEO relocated from Paris to the United States and travels extensively. He brings firsthand relocation experience and deep operational insight, having overseen labor management for 6,500 employees in a previous role. This personal and professional perspective shapes our mission to make every move more informed, less stressful, and financially smarter.

In addition to relocation, City Shift Finance also advises organizations on workforce optimization and business ROI. Our consulting services help leadership teams analyze labor costs, identify efficiency opportunities, and align financial strategy with long-term growth.

Please do not become one of the 2.5 million people who regret their relocation each year. Whether you are relocating personally, managing internal transfers, or supporting new hires, City Shift Finance helps you avoid costly surprises and plan with precision.

Our Mission

Our mission is to help individuals and organizations turn relocation failures into relocation wins by using hyperlocal, personalized, and financially grounded insights to guide every move.

Relocation calculators often fail because they rely on averages and overlook key variables. Generic tools cannot account for what it really costs to live and thrive in a new location. That is why our approach is different. We bring rich, location-specific data to every decision so you are never relying on guesswork.

Because relocation is often tied to broader business outcomes, we also provide consulting services that extend our financial and operational expertise beyond the move, helping organizations reduce costs, improve retention, and strengthen ROI.
