Read the numbers in context
Total GDP describes economic scale. GDP per person is average output per resident, not a salary or a cost-of-living measure. Both use current US dollars; exchange rates and national accounts revisions can change them.
Real GDP growth measures annual output change after price changes. Electricity access and internet use describe national coverage, not service reliability, speed or affordability in a particular city. Life expectancy is an average at birth.
Exports and imports include goods and services. Their totals should not be mixed with an undated goods-only product breakdown.
