    Just a reminder to everyone, life doesn't usually sum up to basics, specially if you get somewhat more than that as a couple. Me and wife live up to about the standards showed in video and in Berlin we easily spend around 1k above than the girls in the video. Clothes, food, take out, restaurants, gifts, etc etc it is very very easy to spend more monthly.

      Jen and Yvonne are doing a terrific job providing current and future immigrants with as much useful information as they can. It would be impossible to include every place and situation anybody might be interested in. They have given a good overall view of current costs in some cities, which gives you a good clue on what to expect in comparable cities. At the end of the day you will have to find out for yourself anyway. Good luck!

      1- salary depends on what you do. It really isn't clear cut, especially with the chaos in the current job market. I recommend creating a shortlist of companies and applying even if you don't intend on taking the job, just to get a feel for it.
      2- you can't just average between cities in different states where the tax laws and living costs vary so greatly. You'll have to pick out specific cities and analyze for yourself.
      3- I've been in Germany for hardly 3 months, so I don't have enough points of data to give you that information. But over all, the US has far less bureaucracy and red tape. I actually intend on returning to the US after I get my PhD, so there's that.

And that is after the increase in inflation. Anyway, it seems like Germany is a livable country

      Livable is a good word. But you can't really "make it" so to speak. Germany(and most of Europe) does a great job at keeping people down.
      Just look at what Lawyers, Doctors, Engineers, programmers and other well paid professions etc. make in Germany vs the US, most of them double, with comparable living costs.
      If you have a low skill job it's a bit better living in Germany, otherwise US wins.

    So I'm paying more for a 3 bedroom apt in a blah city in California than a flat in fabulous Munich. Based on your numbers Deutschland is cheaper than where I live, and the healthcare is a better deal. If my parents could see the future before they left germany...Water over the dam.

    Your videos are soooo informative and wunderbar! I've been considering moving to Germany for a few years now, and have been applying to jobs this year. The prices here blew my mind, as someone from the US (Utah), I pay about $400 MORE than you two put together for my monthly expenses, outside of a city center 😅😭 It's insane. This video gives me hope 🖤 Danke!

    Hello,
    One clarification in 'Example of Average Cost for 2 Adult': Haircut price are mentioned for 1 person (40€) whereas Table heading mentions it that it is for 2 people...
    Also the heading of the table in 'Example of Average Cost for 1 Adult' is mentioned as 'Cost for 2 per month'....
    Apologies for pointing out mistakes...😐😐

    I'm super confused why it's been costing you 35 euros or more for haircuts. My boyfriend lives in Duisburg and his haircuts have gone up to 15 euros now and thinks it's too expensive lmao.
