Yes, it does. Possibly the OP thought that Move.org owns its list.

Move.org publishes it's yearly list of city costs

Or should've.

I know I contract too much. It is my lifelong speech pattern, and I tend to write like I speak.

I'm in the process of tossing years of saved Christmas card photos, many of which have the apostrophe to indicate a plural.

I saw a new store that opened yesterday, and the sign in the window said, "Ladie's Wear". C'mon.

At this point, I can't recall where it was, but many years ago I spied a "Ladie's Room" sign in a store.
Because it was clearly a store that catered to semi-literates, I quickly departed, which is probably why I can't recall the name of the store.

A store just opened up, 8 minutes down the road from my house, called Baby Need's.

I guess you'll have to move.

Not clear on the reason for the apostrophe here.
