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

"The cost of living in Vietnam is relatively low compared to many other countries. Basic groceries, transportation, and utilities are generally inexpensive while rent and dining costs are somewhat higher. Restaurant prices, along with the cost of services such as haircuts and massages, are also quite reasonable. Generally speaking, the cost of living in Vietnam is significantly lower than that of Western nations," wrote a member who made the move to Vietnam.
