Is the cost of living in Indonesia high?

Answer this Question

We asked people about the cost of living in Indonesia, they wrote...

"Living in Indonesia can be relatively inexpensive, but it depends on where in the country you live. The places with the highest cost of living are usually the more densely populated cities, such as Jakarta and Bali, due to higher demand for goods and services. Rent for a nice one bedroom apartment can range from around $300 to $650 USD per month, while a nice two bedroom apartment can range from around $450 to $1200 USD per month. Eating out in a moderately priced restaurant costs around $8 to $15 USD per meal," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Indonesia.
