If you are thinking about moving to Vietnam, cost of living in probably a key consideration. Expats commented about the cost of housing...

"Housing cost is much lower than in Europe; my house rental (include my office) is 150 US$, electricity, water and gas and cable TV is around 150 US$; food cost me about 400 US$ / month. I don't eat meat a lot; price for pork for instance, doubled since 1 year ago. 1 night partying cost me around 100 US$ (Whiskey or cognac, soft drinks and tip for the waitress)," said a member in Phan Thiet, Vietnam.
