Is the cost of living in Freiburg high?

Answer this Question

We asked people how much they someone comfortably live on in Freiburg, they wrote...

"The cost of living in Freiburg, is considered to be relatively high compared to other German cities, especially for housing. Rent for a one-bedroom apartment in the city center can be quite expensive, while it is somewhat cheaper in the outskirts of the city. Groceries are moderately priced, with the cost of food and other basic necessities being slightly above the national average. Eating out at restaurants can vary, with inexpensive meals available at smaller establishments, while dining at mid-range restaurants can be more costly. Public transportation in Freiburg is efficient and affordable, but owning and maintaining a car can be quite expensive due to high fuel prices and parking fees. Healthcare in Freiburg, as in the rest of Germany, is of a high standard and is generally affordable due to the country's statutory health insurance system. Overall, while the cost of living in Freiburg can be high, especially in terms of housing, it is often balanced out by the high quality of life and the city's many amenities," commented one expat who made the move to Freiburg, Germany.
