Will I save money living in Batam?

Answer this Question

We asked expats if they save money living in Batam. They said...

"Living in Batam can be significantly cheaper than living in the United States. The cost of living in Batam is much lower than in the US, with basic necessities such as food, transportation, and housing being much more affordable. Additionally, the cost of entertainment and leisure activities is also much lower in Batam than in the US. As a result, living in Batam can be a great way to save money compared to living in the US," explained one expat living in Batam, Indonesia.
