Is the cost of living in Budapest high?

Answer this Question

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

"$2000 USD will do it but be mindful it doesn't cover major medical or other expenses," remarked another expat who made the move to Budapest, Hungary.

"The cost of living in Budapest is generally considered to be quite affordable. Rent prices are generally lower than in other major European cities, and groceries and other everyday items are also relatively inexpensive. Eating out in restaurants is also quite affordable, with a meal for two people costing around 10-15 euros. Public transportation is also quite affordable, with a monthly pass costing around 20 euros. Overall, Budapest is a great city to live in for those looking for a good quality of life at an affordable price," explained one expat living in Budapest, Hungary.
