To give some perspective. My 2 room apartment (60sqm) of medium quality in a city center (60sqm) cost me 399usd per month. I live in a small city about 4 hours from Stockholm. In my city you can get a coffee at a café for 2-3usd. I rarely go to restaurants, if I go out to eat I usually go to a Pizzeria, or a hamburger joint (local). Which will cost you about 12-15usd for a meal+drink. So prices differ vastly depending on where in Sweden you live, and where you choose to eat.
Thank you.
Whats the name of your city? How’s life now given the pandemic ?
@@oliviafeng9100 Its Säffle, one of the smallest cities in Sweden. Sadly, Covid have hit us hard here. Looking better last week, but most are in isolation and lockdown.
@@BerishStarr ok thanks for replying. So it might be similar situation there as my current place.
Thank you I'm planning on moving to Sweden learning my swedish
Still way cheaper than any big city in America, LA, NYC,Seattle..etc A studio apt is $2,200 USD.
The breakdown of districts was very helpful! Thank you!
legend this video helped me quite a lot, currently based in London so moving pros and cons of working there, thanks!
Awesome! All the best!!! Keep us posted on your moves.
when you do the 'cost of living' part in your reviews of each country, could you include the income tax? Because making 80K in one place means something totally different if you are taxed at 40 percent, or 28 percent. Thanks.
Ann Raybon great suggestion. The problem might be the various tax structures in each country. We might have a difficult time getting simple and accurate information.
Hi can you suggest me what accommodation facilities available near kth.
Can you suggest me how to do is wise.
First viewer! This is super helpful!
Yay! Thank you! We're glad this was helpful and hope to serve you more.
Question what us city your comparing it to with expenses? I'm in Portland Oregon and that's way cheaper than here. I'm just trying to get a general idea because I'm going into the tech industry
Awesome !!!! Welcome to Stockholm
Thanks! 😃
Vasastan is not at all similar to rinkeby-Tensta, not a miljon years, vasastan is a part of inner sthlm, Rinkeby-Tensta is not, thats a suburb part that you should avoid
Why do you think that? The demographic of people that live there that has created a reputation for violent conduct?
Why do you think that people should avoid Rinkeby-Tensta? Can you please explain?
@@Ganji2009 Its a bad neiberhood, lots of crime and drugs
@@TheJonasbz I live in Kista. very close to Rinkeby. I have never seen any crimes here. Sweden is rated as one of the safest countries in the world. So, I think it is not good spread such false rumours without data to support it.
I beleve Tensta for some reason iust a little bit better but if you dont seen any crimes in Rinkeby youre blind., heres just an exemple
th-cam.com/video/aoyXbd5-XXI/w-d-xo.html
Not that Rinkebu is the only suburb with problems, its the same thing in all the concrete areas outside city but it is one of the worse. But there are some hope and that is in the real world we live in crimes going down, no matter what the alt-right says, they minds is in a alternative reality that dont exist
My fiance and I are considering moving to Gothenburg for work. I'm in finance and he's in IT any recommendations?
He's probably from Malmö
Helsingborg
@@ExpatsEverywhere that's nice, greetings from Switzerland, I'm coming to live in Stockholm this January :))
@@mariomartini6679 Hi! Are you from Switzerland originally?
Fantastic and congratulations. What are you most excited about and what are you most confused or in doubt about?
@@ExpatsEverywhere no I'm Italian, I came to switzerland two years ago to study and decided to stay, now I've accepted an internship from a Company in Stockholm until july and I have to say They've been so nice to me because I have many benefits like paid flight, accomodation provided and even free gym. So can't Wait to begin this new chapter 😍
Very helpful Thanks!
Yannick Wirjosentono You’re welcome. We’re glad you found it helpful.
You guys have lived everywhere lol. Saw your video on how you guys moved to Saudi Arabia
We haven't LIVED in Stockholm. This video is a part of a series we did where our TH-cam community voted for places for us to highlight about Moving, Living, and Working there so we sourced the information and interviewed expats on their experience and then condensed it into something watchable. As for Saudi, we have lived there. 😁 - Josh & Kalie
@@ExpatsEverywhere Saudi looks pretty awesome. Arabic language is quite hard though probably need to get to an advanced level to live there
Which country has been your favourite to live in so far?
Skåne?
Why do you say "housing options" and "houses in high demand" when you are talking about inner city flats and apartments? Is that normal US lingo?
We'll have to check with our British teammates to see if it's US lingo or not but you probably picked up on the fact that the root word "house" in this case means any building a person lives in.
@@ExpatsEverywhere Yes, I guess "housing" now means "getting a roof above ones head" or similar. But still kind of confusing to me, semantically. The phrase "houses in high demand" sounds like you want to buy the whole apartment building, or alternatively that you belive there are lots of small villas in the inner town/city of Stockholm.
Are visitors who speak english welcome?? It's pretty scary that you ask a guy to pronounce some swedish names for you and on top of that he is apologetic for his pronunciation,,, is this a joke?? creepy
Is Viktor from Malmö?
He's from Helsingborg.
Make video carpinter job in sweden
Thanks for the suggestion, Amandeep Singh. Unfortunately, that video would be a bit too niche for us to make. We could potentially try to find someone that's a carpenter in Sweden. Do you know anyone?
Is he from Malmö
Our friend?
@@ExpatsEverywhere yeah
Greetings from Lisbon! I didn’t realize you had left and you’ve been wandering around and are now in Stockholm! That’s awesome. I visited Stockholm a few years back on a very warm few days in the summer and it was gorgeous. I loved it and I thought about potentially moving there, but the winters sound really foreboding. And I have a whopper of a visa renewal story waiting 18 months still haven’t gotten it.
You never lived there? Next
literally spend half the time describing districts. why
4 minutes of the 11:42 video was spent talking about the districts because people might want to know where to target to move there. It's literally a third of the video for that reason.
waste of 11 minutes.
