The REAL Cost of Living in VIENNA in 2024 | Is it as EXPENSIVE as they say? 

i am sorry, but i must counter. the grocery cost won't be representative (not even close) for most of the households. for a 4 person household it's around 1000 euro. transportation is 30 per adult person per month which is really cheap but still not 30 fir the household as for the car insurance, you are refering only to mtpl. however, if you own a tesla, casco would cost you 2k yearly even with 50% bonus you are not mentioning clothing, hairdresser, public tv in my opinion, a more realistic figure is 3.5k eur monthly, but it can easily go over 4

In Poland I pay 50zl (12euro) for two phone plans with unlimited Internet 😎 so it's 6 euro per person. But can't wait to move to Vienna, love it there 😍😭

We live in Jacksonville Florida… 2 adults 2 kids ….$12500 a month ….moving to Valencia Spain next year … thank you for the video. Vienna is on the list of cities we must see next year while living in Europe.

I live also in Vienna, no offense but prices are much higher for a family.

Hii ! Groceries appear to be significantly cheaper than groceries in the USA. I live alone and spend $280 per month whilst eating out 2-3 times per week.

On average living expenses are cheaper in Europe than America (about 18 percent cheaper) but skilled salaries are double in America. Do the research on salaries and you will see this.

Hi, guys! Thank you for the video. It’s very informative and useful. Could you please also make a video about Vienna school system (education system). Thank you!

Nice and informative video! And for me 65+ the medical insurance topic is on the top. What is the best medical insurance for senior who get residents permission?, plz?

Can you do a video of which area in Vienna has antique and thrift shops? Nice ones. Thank you!

@KhyatiPuria Hello! I am VERY interested in exploring the healthcare costs. I was born and raised in the US but I am now a new Austrian citizen under 58c and after visiting Vienna for almost 2 months, I decided I want to relocate permanently to Vienna or the nearby area in the not too distant future. I am a family of 4 (Wife, Daughter and Son but Daughter is now in University but still living with us since her campus is local, fortunately). As I understand it, private insurance may cost me up to 500 euros a month (depending on medical questions - I am over 50) AND coverage does not begin until after 6 months! So that is about 3000 euros and a 6 month wait! But what if I get sick inside of that 6 months? How much will medications cost? What if I am diabetic or have high blood pressure and need maintenance drugs? How much will I pay for those meds until the insurance kicks in? What if I get injured in an accident, need an ambulance and / or break a bone? Will I be bankrupt by all this? Coming from America, healthcare costs are a VERY real concern for me. I also need to know if my family is covered or do they each pay a fee for 6 months as well? After the insurance kicks in, do I pay co-pays or is there a deductible that has to be paid up first? For me, this is the most important topic when I come to live in Austria. I may not have a job right away but I will still need healthcare right away and as such, I must know what all the costs are so that I can budget for it and hope that I can still afford to move there. Obviously, I realize it would be best to line up a job before coming so that I am already on the public healthcare right away. But I assume the reality is that most companies will not want to wait for you to relocate or help you relocate so I may very well need to move to Austria first and then look for a job. This will put me at risk until I can obtain health care insurance and get my maintenance medications covered. ÖGK did tell me that there is a treaty with the US and Austria where after I have worked for over 1 year in Austria, my US Social Security will be recognized in Austria where I can stay on the public system after I retire. I am also covered by a double-tax treaty (The US actually taxes its citizens world-wide, no matter where they live but the double tax treaty covers you until anything you make past around 110K / year).

Healthcare monthly and annual charges and in detail video please

Seems like housing costs are lower than most western countries but the cheap groceries are jaw dropping , this is how much a family of 4 will spend in NZ in a week to 10 days. No doubt, Vienna is so high in liveability index 👍🏾

the housing costs in most districts are not 1200-20%= € 1000,- for a 2 bed appartment, thats definitely not true. Its far cheaper in most districts. you should definitely not sum up your expensive costs from online ordering to normal living costs. if you cook it by yourself, you need less money and you have a better quality in food.

It is beautiful 🌸

Yes i have been looking for the costs of owning a tesla in Vienna. Pls make the video 😞

Please cover dental insurance coverage. Including oral surgeries like dental implants and sinus lifts.

How hard is it to find a job there?

85 sq meter flat for 200€? I pay about 190€ for a 29 sq meter government flat from Gemeinde Wohnung. How can flat seekers find an 85 sq meter flat for 200€?

We as two adults and two toddlers spends 450€ only on groceries, we don't eat out, plus our car got tickets almost twice or thrice a month which costs us between 100-200€, is it only us ?.

Judging from my own personal and modest lifestyle in Queens Ny living in Vienna would cost me at least 50% less.

1400 euros housing costs. I live in Hawaii and my rent alone is 3000 dollars a month.

Hello, Can you tell me how much would it cost for a student? Renting in a shared apartment.

Hello, what is the average price of a gym in Vienna? Thank you.

Childcare could be basically for free in Vienna - only 70 € per kid for food per month.

Can you do a video about the weather?

Can i get part time jobs easily there ? To pay my studies??

Yes inflation is real. BTW editing is on point…

Can you live in Austria only speaking English?

in Ukraine you could get for 100UAN +-2.5 Euro unlimited internet for a month) and after these prices Europe feels too expensive

2500 net is OK for 1 person?

Why the F didnt you mention the cost of electricity? how could you leave out such an essential cost?

would like to know if you can work and live by just speaking english?

I don’t think you live in Vienna. If you did you would have picked better stock footage.

Can You sum it up in dollars?😊

amazing how dirt cheap Vienna is compared to California.

What a superior way of living compared to the rotten American way of surviving of their people.

i dont mean to offend you here okay: 250eur for groceries per month for a family is not very realistic these days. at a very minimum i would say you will need 500eur+++ per month
