Will I save money living in Koh Samui?

"Yes, you are likely to save money living in Koh Samui compared to the United States. The cost of living in Thailand is generally lower than in the U.S. This includes expenses such as rent, groceries, dining out, and transportation. Healthcare is also significantly cheaper in Thailand. However, the amount of money you save can depend on your lifestyle and spending habits. For instance, if you choose to live in a luxury condo and eat at high-end restaurants, your cost of living may be similar to that in the U.S. But overall, for a comparable lifestyle, you would typically spend less in Koh Samui than in the United States," said another expat in Koh Samui, Thailand.
