"Tsim Sha Tsui is one of the most expensive areas to live in the city. The cost of living is high, with rent for a one-bedroom apartment in the city center being significantly more expensive than in other parts of Hong Kong. Eating out, especially at mid-range to high-end restaurants, can also be quite costly. Groceries are also more expensive than in other parts of the world, with imported goods being particularly pricey. Public transportation, while efficient and widely used, is also more expensive than in other cities. Healthcare in Hong Kong is excellent but can be costly, especially for non-residents. Private healthcare is particularly expensive. Leisure activities such as going to the cinema, gym memberships, and participating in sports clubs can also add to the cost of living. Despite the high cost of living, many people are drawn to Tsim Sha Tsui for its vibrant nightlife, shopping, and dining options, as well as its proximity to the business districts of Hong Kong," remarked another expat who made the move to Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong.
