// Jobs & cost of living (/stats/<place>/jobs), the parts that are not a plain Eurostat / World
// Bank / FRED series list:
// - OECD Data Explorer SDMX (no key): average and minimum wages in USD PPP, hours, long hours,
// temporary-job shares, long-term unemployment, graduate employment and the tertiary
// earnings premium (Education at a Glance), house price-to-income / price-to-rent, monthly
// youth unemployment and comparative price levels (USA = 100). Series `oecd:jobs:<name>:<ISO3>`.
// - Derived from those: real wage growth (yearly change of the constant-price average wage) and
// an approximate median full-time wage (real minimum wage ÷ minimum-to-median ratio),
// `jobs:realwagegrowth:<ISO3>` and `jobs:medianwage:<ISO3>`.
// - The Economist Big Mac index (GitHub CSV, CC BY 4.0): `economist:bigmac:<ISO3>:<measure>`.
// - Derived from FRED: US job openings per unemployed person (JTSJOL / UNEMPLOY).
// - Derived from World Bank: price level of private consumption, USA = 100
// (PA.NUS.PRVT.PP ÷ PA.NUS.FCRF; WDI dropped PA.NUS.PPPC.RF), `jobs:pricelevel:<ISO3>`.
// Numbeo is not used: it has no free API and its terms forbid scraping.
