Is the cost of living in Tanzania high?

Answer this Question

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

"The cost of living in Tanzania is generally considered to be quite affordable. Basic necessities such as food, transportation, and housing are relatively inexpensive compared to other countries. However, the cost of living can vary depending on the city and lifestyle. For example, living in the capital city of Dar es Salaam is more expensive than living in smaller cities or rural areas. Additionally, the cost of imported goods and services can be higher than in other countries," commented one expat who made the move to Tanzania.
