I will be moving to Stockholm soon! Thank you so much for this video. It is very informative!
Hi I need some help if you live near kth about accommodation please let me know how to do is wise
Awesome video! Very detailed and informative - it covered pretty much everything I wanted to know about cost of living/shopping at Stockholm. Thanks! Also, extra thanks for touching upon availability of vegetarian/vegan options as I was looking for them as well. :)
Amazing video!!!
This was very helpful as I'm looking forward for higher studies.
Thank you soo much. Truly appreciated your efforts!!!
Thank you for sharing! Some of these links will actually be very useful.
Great video! Full of useful insights for someone who has never been to Sweden before. I'm moving there to study this Autumn and I feel more prepared now. Comparing the prices to what they are here in the UK, they are more or less similar, so luckily I won't experience much of a shock in that area. I don't live in Stockholm yet, however having surfed the internet in a search of a decent flat for me and my partner I can already agree that the struggle is real! But fingers crossed we'll find something soon. Can't wait to experience the city for myself soon!
Fantastic video! I'd love to know more about different neighborhoods and suburbs in Stockholm.
Thank you so much for this video! I'm an American moving to Stockholm and hearing a detailed breakdown of the expenses is extremely helpful!
Hi I need some help if you live near kth about accommodation please let me know how to do is wise😊

sen de mi stockholme gitmek istiyosun :)
Very practical informations! Thanks
Looks tempting to come over to Sweden for migration. Great content, Anastasia! 🥰🤓😍
Extremely good explanation.
Good morning thank you so much for very good information
"SEK" is the official designation for the Swedish currency which is called "Krona" = "Crown". It's the same as for the US dollar for example, whose official designator is "USD".
Good information .Thanks for sharing
Good to know! Thank you!!
Thanks for all the job and effort you did for making this video ♥
love you ana, thanks a lot
Great vid, and I`m swedish. Kudos
Nice video , I wish I can relocated there next year ...
Awesome !!!! Welcome to Stockholm
Moving to Sweden next yr for my masters😍
This is a really useful video, thank you!
Hi, would it be possible to advice some areas outside Stockholm 5-10 kms, where rent prices are more reasonable ? I heard Solna and Sundyberg are ok 👌🏻 I am soon moving to Stockholm, so need a bit of help 🙏🏻
Loved the vegetarian part :)
Hello, very nice video. You mentionned that there are a ot of vegetarian alernatives. What about vegan alternatives in comparision with UK or France?
Just moved to Stockholm for a new job so this quite helpful. What app do you use to keep track of your personal expenses? This might be handy in the coming months... ;)
Nice!
I think now there is an app called Zlantar, which has connections to most banks. But also bank's native apps have some tracking of expenses.
Thanks a lot, A great and very informative video, Wish you all the best.
Thank you!
Hello Mam! New member of your extended family! 😇 Amazing and Informative Video!
Mam are you from Sweden? I mean born and brought up in Sweden?
What is the cost of cell phone plans, monthly internet access, tv licence if any?
Very helpful video, thank you!
What about cost of utilities like heating, electricity, water and sewage, garbage collection. Assuming for a house in the suburbs?
Thank you!
I didn't include housing information, because I have no first hand knowledge about it and there's no reliable source I could find for that. Maybe you could check some forums, like this one, if you are interested? www.thelocal.se/discuss/index.php?showtopic=56670?showtopic=56670
Replying a bit late. But everything is included in the price of the rent except for electricity.
Thanks!
Hello, thanks very helpful. Could you please right down the name of the site for checking the apartment owners? thanks
If you bought accommodation outside the stockhom city, it will be chepeast as compared to such place which located in city.

Hi, Anastasia. Thank you for the content of your videos. They are so meaningful. =)
Make video on carpinter job in sweden and salery
Do you need to pay for water, electricity, Internet? Or is it included in the price when you rent an apartment? Thanks for this video btw! Very instructive :)
Some rentals include all that, some have electricity and internet separately. 😊
Productivit'Arts, you have a twin in America. I attended college with a girl that looks just like you.
Congratulation on the videos, I'm from Brazil, but I live here in Sweden and it is very good, I also have a channel talking about Sweden, I really like to see the videos of those who live here.
Faz tempo que tu mora aí? Onde eu posso achar mais informação sobre morar na Suécia?
@@adroaldoribeiro4529tudo bem? Estou começando um canal falando sobre esse tema, já tenho alguns vídeos lá, faço vídeo toda sexta se quiser acompanhar é só me seguir ; )
Hi @Anatasia K, can I request to make a video on grocery shopping? Where is the cheapest place to buy groceries? thank you and stay safe....from Malaysia..
Willys !
Probably Lidl as well now these days
im moving in 10 days, starting a service delivery job in january at only 22500 sek, seemed like a solid wage until i heard of these averages
I feel you bro, I'm starting a job next month for not much more than that and this video was depressing.
Hi! Sorry that this is your impression of the video, hope it works out for you! 🙂
My goal was not to show how to cut costs and manage to live on a certain amount of money, but to talk in general about how much things/activities cost here.
I am sure you can live on those salaries, but the truth in Stockholm is that it comes with some expectation adjustment, for example living with flatmates and not eating out often (especially now that it's not recommended).
It's not impossible, I moved here with a salary not much higher than that, but it's important to have the right expectations, Stockholm is not cheap for living. In fact, it's in the top 5% most expensive cities in the world: livingcost.org/cost/sweden/stockholm#:~:text=The%20average%20cost%20of%20living,out%20of%2060%20in%20Sweden.

Hey! I'm planning on coming to Sweden for my data science masters. I'm an IT major from India, presently working in a startup. Can you give me any tips about a good college? :)
Hi! I haven't studied in Sweden, so the advice I can give is based on my research and hearsay. KTH is very highly ranked, Uppsala University and Chalmers University are good for tech degrees too :)

@@AnastasiaKVL That is very helpful, I was considering Chalmers.Thank you! :D
@@megha4785 Swede here. Chalmers and KTH are some of the best ones, then Uppsala University and LTH.
@@michelinii2311 hey! Could you please tell me some good public universities for Media and Communications/Public Relations MA?
Damn! USA remains the best - concluded after watching this video :D
300 SEK for a gym membership is actually really good, at least compared to the US
Good lord. A litre of milk in the Seattle area is between $2.95-3.95. --My son was paying $2700 to rent a room in Seattle 7 years ago (with kitchen privileges).
Hi Ms. Anastasia. Thanks for this informative video. I’d like to ask if you know Hampus Casper Group & Elvira Agency? I have a job offer there but i’d like to make sure if they’re legit. Thank you very much
What are the monthly costs of owning a car?
I have a cousin in Stockholm who’s in his 40s and he’s never learned how to drive. If he has to go where there’s no public transportation, he hires a driver (not an Uber or taxi).
Can please somebody give me an idea how much 1 bedroom apartment cost in Malmo and Lund? I have a job offer and I need to decide fast

@@AnastasiaKVL thank you so much for for the link. Its really helpful. Next, I am trying to figure out expenses related to babies. Like cost of formula and diapers which usually are expensive in every part of the world. Do you know which are most common online shops in Sweden? May be I can check prices there
Добрый день) а сколько могут стоить бассейны?)
Здравствуйте! Здесь один из примеров в Стокгольме, 100SEK за одно посещение motionera.stockholm/trana-gymma-simma/priser/

I lived in my van in Stockholm, but usually spent the night at a girlfriend's place.
Is it very hard to bear the lack of sunshine in Sweden ?
yes :(
@@AnastasiaKVL 😥
Are you Swedish yourself?
Everything is relative.
Half salary goes to a studio apartment wow
How much is it to rent a car in Stockholm for a week
Ю а бьютифуль! )
119 sek and 229 sek seems very expensive to travel if u only make 27000 sek a year lol holy crap.. how much is air per hour? 68 seks?!
Thanks for the details :) can u please explain how can someone come from outside the Europe to Sweden by work permit?
Max burger is the best burger I have ever had 💯
Mam, are all Swedish youngsters taller than 183cm
no :D
Hi friend, For 23000 a month, and those prices are ridiculous. It is as bad as Los Angeles and San Francisco, Do people have a savings account or invest money in Stock Market?
1U$D = 10SEK
10 = 100
100 = 1000
Let me ask you just out of curiosity. For an American salary of $40k annually, how is that compared to your Sek?
Hi! With the current conversion rates, $40k is approximately SEK330,000, which is an average starting salary for a junior Data Scientist in Stockholm.
You can check out the video I made on Data Scientist salaries here th-cam.com/video/KnoHB973jQc/w-d-xo.html
Maybe it'll give you a bit more context :)
300-400$ на еду в месяц - весьма скромно, у меня в Минске столько на одного выходит
You are very beautiful ❤️
Soooo how’s the racism in Stockholm I feel like I would love it here financially and everything else 🥴
There is no racism here
35$ brunch o.o omg
A nice pub lunch in the South Puget Sound area (35-50 miles south of Seattle) was $50 ten years ago.
Did she cover how much of your inheritance from your parents the government takes in the United States we call it the death tax it should not happen it should be repealed
That varies from one state to the next.
Insurance did she cover insurance. renting an apartment is the dumbest thing in the world live in your car until you can buy something stay at your parents place
depending on the size of the apartment the insurance is 100-300 SEK a month. Having a car is pretty rare, and living with parents is not always possible, especially if you move to Sweden from another country 😄
My Stockholm cousin in his 40s has never learned to drive. You don’t need a car there.
@@schoolingdiana9086 we get it, you hate cars. The majority of Stockholm residents do have a car.
If I ever go there I will buy you a meal. Her cheeks are cute
Could you please buy a new Microphone? because It does not work well. Thanks
