Did you read my mind? I am potentially moving to Rome for work and was minding my own business doing my research and then this video pops up? Girlllll you did all my research for me! THANK YOU!
I really love your video, K... It's so rare to have people like you talking about Italy without boasting how great is the food, the wine, the espresso - - oh - and the parmesan
Thanks, Aaron! I really try to make my videos as efficient as possible. Start video -- Here is the information -- Ciao, see you in the next one. 🤣 Unless it is a vlog or something... razie for watching!
As soon as I heard the bit on healthcare being a fundamental right, I subscribed😂 thank you so much for these videos, I love your style and hope to make the move myself from the US! ❤️
I plan on moving to Rome to get my masters degree so it’s a weird combination of the student and professional costs, so thank you so much for including both so I can compare!
Good day. Amazing job Kenya. This was very informative and the video was done well. I have lived in Italy and everything you we’re speaking on was truly spot on!!
Oh how I miss my Rome :) So beautiful, so eternal :) I miss every fontanella, every alley, every low building, every Caravaggio, every Bernini. Every car and every motorcycle parked where it couldn't be. Every morning cornetto. Every Napoletana pizza, every Sicilian sweet. Each time each Rome overlapped. ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi, my son play football and he get invitation to play in italia rome i want to know if they have jobs for foreign peoples and how long can i stay in the country.
Hello! Thank you for such a thorough video! I have a question: would you recommend others to move to Rome? if so, why? I ask this because living and visiting a country is completely different
Ciao! No, thank you for watching! I would recommend others to move to Rome if they have a particular interest in the arts, architecture, history, fashion (more in Milan), cuisine and wine! I'm sure everyone can find themselves in one of those categories. Haha! Also, if they love a well-balanced yearly climate. It rarely ever snows in the winter and the climate is very mild. The summer can be hot, but worth it! Also, I would recommend living here if you have PATIENCE, because some of the bureaucracy here for the simple things like a visa are a marathon to complete.
Thank you very much for the breakdown and comparison! It really helps to give a realistic perspective on the subject. Would you be able to do a similar video on Italy's education system (daycare, kindergarten, and all the way up).
This was very informative. Thanks for taking the time to break it all down. I’ve been to Rome twice and I’m looking forward to moving there in 2021, got to get all my ducks in a row first. Looking forward to more content on Rome and Italy in general. Subscribed.
Thank you so much for watching! I hope I broke it down clearly enough for you so you have an idea of what to expect on your move here in 2021. Post-pandemic, hopefully! You have to get the full Italian experience, including the cheek kisses! Haha! Don't move here until this "season" passes... 😉 Socializing is a bit up in the air these days.
Thank you kenya! Very helpful.❤️Rome is truly captivating. Everywhere you look is bursting with history and beauty. We visited the city during Spring as part of our DIY EUROTRIP video. The entire city is rich with art, sculpture and architecture. 🤩🤩🤩 Its like walking inside a huge museum. ❤️❤️❤️
Low like in entire Italy, this is the reality Although this, the cost of living is quite high in cities like Rome and especially Milan. Today a medium worker earn barely what he needs to survive
Hi Kenya, nice video, great information. I especially liked the part where you detailed the health system. One thing I’d like to ask though: when it comes to renting an apartment, how do you actually make payments, and who will you be dealing with? For example, in Sweden you would deal with corporate landlords almost exclusively and all payments are made digitally (bank to bank). But, in the Philippines and Dubai you deal almost entirely with privately owned apartments and pay with checks. This means you must first establish a bank account and so on in order to get checks before you can rent an apartment. This is something I didn’t know before setting foot in Dubai the first time, and fixed me to live in a hotel for over 2 months while getting the bank account (things take time, a lot of requirements before you get granted a bank account here). Could you elaborate on how this works in Rome please? I.e who you deal with, and how to make payments? Thanks!
Hi there! Thanks for your comment. So, I’ve dealt with contracts registered with apartment owners and I made a transfer directly to their account as per the terms stated. As my bank account was authorized for international transfers through a partner app, I didn’t have any issues. Some pay in cash directly to owners as well. As with many things in Italy, it depends! Thanks for watching.
Great information. Do I guess if you had ur own property, it would be much cheaper minus the rent. Do you have any other costs if you have your own place? Also, what has been your own experience with medical care? What are dentist costs, like and expertise? Many thanks 😊
Ciao Janet!! The price of the property would definitely be influenced by the location, size and if it needs to be renovated. Regardless, in the Centro Storico of Rome, you can estimate an average price per square meter of about 4.000 €/m² to € 7.825 €/m² (based on December 2022 stats) or 370 - 725 euros per square foot (doing these quick calculations on my phone, so I hope it’s correct. 😂😅). That price can be comparable to many of the major cities in the US, so I wouldn’t call it a “deal” in that area, but the further you go outside of the city, the cheaper it gets. With inflation and an economic slowdown, I believe properties have decreased in value as a whole here. In terms of rental yield, I’d go out on a limb here and say by owning or renting, there won’t be a huge profit for property owners. You also will need to consider Condominium, utility fees, etc. In terms of public healthcare in Italy, it is satisfactory, although you may have to wait for an appointment for non-urgent issues. I’d suggest getting private insurance if you want to have shorter waiting times and meet with a specialist more easily. That coverage will also influence price of the dentist, etc. Difficult to say in an overall term. Hope that helps!
Hi, Kenya! Thanks a lot for your videos! Could you share your opinion regarding living in Italy in general? I mean work, salary, medicine, quality of living and so on, especially in comparison with US. Thank you in advance.
Hi! Welcome to my channel. I cover various topics but in different videos to keep them more focused on just one concept! For example, you have this Cost of Living in Italy video, another on average Salaries, another on Pros/Cons of living in Italy, etc. Check them out on my Life in Italy playlist. I believe this helps to keep my audience focused on just the topics they are interested in. Thank you for tuning in to my videos! I really appreciate it.
I was expecting Rome to be WAY less then America. It if for sure less expensive then say New York or California but it seems on par with places like Arizona. Looks like I won’t actually save that much especially if you calculate on the exchange rate. I’m assuming this is all based in maintaining a US based job? If that’s the case then yes I can see how this would be worth wile especially if you make 3-4k per month.
It all just depends on your budget and the size of your family unit. Definitely reasonable, in my opinion, though. Many flexible options to stay in budget.
Hi Kenya!!........Are these total costs for a single person, a couple or a family?? Also, what about taxes in the US and Italian taxes? All the best, beautiful! :)
Ciao Charles! These are estimated costs are for a single person. In the case of the student, you will see my final summary considering if the student lives with two other roommates (utilities shared). I hope that’s clear!
So, the national income tax in Italy is progressive, but it ranges from around 23% to 43%. In the U.S., it varies on the federal income tax as well, depending on marital/filing status, there are different brackets. All depend on your taxable income and don't include the state or local taxes. That's another aspect...
What are the opportunities for civil engineering in Italy. Basically I am civil engineer so, I want to come for master's in civil engineering in Italy. I want to know about that is there any future of civil engineer in Italy? I am from India.
Hi Abdullah. You will 100% need to speak Italian to work as a Civil Engineer in Italy, so start working on that now, OR, like I usually suggest to others interested in coming to Italy, have an open mind and look for jobs and degree opportunities everywhere in the EU/the world, not just Italy. The job market is extremely tough to Italians, even more so to foreigners, so I actually encourage people to apply in more than one location and do a cost of living comparison, based on your budget. Good luck!
hi! i want to study in sapienza university of rome, and i was wondering if you knew any good neighborhoods that are close to this university please. thank u!
Hi Daniela! Well, the first step is to figure out exactly which Sapienza campus you will have to attend. There are multiple departments and facilities spread across Rome, so do your research and then you’ll be able to narrow down your neighborhood. Not sure what you will study, but keep this in mind!
Im student and i found an internship in italy ,the salary in the contract is 400 euros but they pay rent for me also free food during working hours? Is it enough? I still dont know how to cook btw , ty for the video it really helped me to know more
Yes, of course. Just make sure you are traveling in the main zone supported by the ticket you bought. Otherwise, you’ll need another ticket to cover a zone further away. This link should help: www.atac.roma.it/images/default-source/biglietti-e-abbonamenti/metrebus-lazio/zone-tariffarie-lazio.png?sfvrsn=5c1064b1_2
Hi Ernest! One of my next videos uploaded will be on the visa types in Italy, which as per immigration law in Italy, all require you to have some type of medical insurance coverage. Some people opt for private medical insurance (in the US, for example) when they come to Italy. Obviously, you can't move to Italy without a visa first if you are a non-EU citizen, so stay tuned! 😊 As for the health insurance, as far as I am aware, as long as you remain in the EEA (European Economic Area), so the EU + Iceland, Liechtenstein & Norway, you are entitled to free/relatively cheap services in other countries.
Ciao Mercy! To my knowledge, there are no American curriculum-based international schools without tuition, and they all are pretty expensive from my previous research (7k - 26k euros per year). Honestly, I’m unsure about the British curriculum based schools, but I do know in general they are cheaper than the American schools. I hope that helps your research!
Unfortunately, I can’t speak about my personal experience regarding that scholarship, because I wasn’t eligible. I did find the previous call at the following link that could provide you further information. Hope this helps! www.laziodisco.it/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Bando-Diritto-allo-Studio-a.a.-2020-2021-errata-corrige-22-06-2020.pdf
I have lived my whole Italian experience in Rome, so unfortunately, I feel like I’m best equipped to keep my opinions regarding costs in that city. There are many comparison guides, however. Check out this one I found: costof.live/cost-of-living/comparison/rome/vs/milan
Haha, well, it’s worth considering! Get a visa, come with your job, and you can live the Italian life! Haha! My video on the most common visas should help you out: th-cam.com/video/DTJuj16l5Nw/w-d-xo.html
I’m a big city kinda girl! Haha! Plus, I need my connection to the airport (FCO) in 30 minutes or less when I travel. When I need a break, I go to the countryside in Molise. Puglia’s neighbor that nobody knows about. 🤣
HAI FATTO BENE A SOTTOLINEARE CHE LA SANITà PUBBLICA IN ITALIA E GRATUITA ED UNIVERSALE MA NON CAPISCO QUANDO DICI CHE LA TESSERA SANITARIA VALE 1 ANNO E HA UN COSTO, A ME NON RISULTA
Per gli stranieri è così. Io vivo con uno studente extracomunitario (palestinese per la precisione) che paga 150 euro all'anno per la tessera sanitaria. Normale, e considerato quello che offre il SSN, anche giusto. Ancora meglio poi guardando i commenti (sotto molti video del genere) di gente che si informa perchè nel proprio paese non si può permettere le cure (molti malati cronici per esempio) per alcune cose, o addirittura gente che prima di pensare a venire in Italia cerca il metodo per evitare le tasse.
@@MrNoncredo quelli non residenti nei paesi UE il cui stato di appartenenza non ha convenzioni col nostro. Un australiano per esempio, visto che l'Australia ha una convenzione particolare, non pagherà nulla. In ogni caso fortunatamente non succede quasi mai che qualcuno si approfitti dei nostri prezzi irrisori (perché pagare 150 euro all'anno per entrare nel SSN è pochissimo) perché è pericoloso, sia da paesi più ricchi con una sanità privata che da paesi più poveri senza una sanità valida in generale.
Hi Kenya. amazing video. I'm from South Africa. I was offered a teaching job in an international primary school in Rome. I wanted to know how much do you think is possible to save a month - granted I enjoy travel, food and wine haha. The offer I received was 2,500 euros net and a free apartment. do you think its good? thank you.
Hey man 😮👋🏻 is it Kendale Primary International School?? Because I was also offered a job there. I’m excited and concerned at the same time. I’m afraid that with the second wave of Corona virus, things are gonna end up being bad there and they may have a second lockdown and schools will close. It’s a perfect opportunity, but I’m afraid of the current situation and that it may get worse.
@@munaalazzeh2669 yes yes same school. where are you from? yeah I also thought about the second wave but we've literally been through the first wave at home haha. I'll just mask it up and sanitize 😂
I am from Jordan actually I am half Jordanian half Russian. yes of course it is really important to wear a mask but still the numbers are increasing crazy in Rome , and it is a little bit scary. And I am really scared of the idea that you might end up being on a lockdown with no work and you can’t go back to your country I mean that would be really scary and a big problem for us as foreigners in Rome.
@@munaalazzeh2669 yes yes I get you, I've been seeing that the cases are going up too 🙈💀 so I'm just hoping that it settles a bit first. have you spoken to someone at the school about this? if there's a second wave, what would possibly happen?
No not yet.they sent me the employment contract today but I haven’t decided yet but I’m going to send them an email asking them all these questions. Is it OK to sign the contract after a few weeks to see if the situation there is going to become any better before deciding or do I need to give them my decision right now since they sent me the contract? What about you did they sent you the contract? Have you decided yet?

Hi Kenya, nice video, great information. I especially liked the part where you detailed the health system.
One thing I’d like to ask though: when it comes to renting an apartment, how do you actually make payments, and who will you be dealing with?
For example, in Sweden you would deal with corporate landlords almost exclusively and all payments are made digitally (bank to bank).
But, in the Philippines and Dubai you deal almost entirely with privately owned apartments and pay with checks. This means you must first establish a bank account and so on in order to get checks before you can rent an apartment.
This is something I didn’t know before setting foot in Dubai the first time, and fixed me to live in a hotel for over 2 months while getting the bank account (things take time, a lot of requirements before you get granted a bank account here).

Hi there! Thanks for your comment.

Ancora meglio poi guardando i commenti (sotto molti video del genere) di gente che si informa perchè nel proprio paese non si può permettere le cure (molti malati cronici per esempio) per alcune cose, o addirittura gente che prima di pensare a venire in Italia cerca il metodo per evitare le tasse.
@@s.s.7404 non sapevo che gli stranieri dovessero pagare
@@MrNoncredo quelli non residenti nei paesi UE il cui stato di appartenenza non ha convenzioni col nostro. Un australiano per esempio, visto che l'Australia ha una convenzione particolare, non pagherà nulla.
In ogni caso fortunatamente non succede quasi mai che qualcuno si approfitti dei nostri prezzi irrisori (perché pagare 150 euro all'anno per entrare nel SSN è pochissimo) perché è pericoloso, sia da paesi più ricchi con una sanità privata che da paesi più poveri senza una sanità valida in generale.
Per gli stranieri la tessere dura un anno è vero
Hi Kenya. amazing video. I'm from South Africa. I was offered a teaching job in an international primary school in Rome. I wanted to know how much do you think is possible to save a month - granted I enjoy travel, food and wine haha. The offer I received was 2,500 euros net and a free apartment. do you think its good? thank you.
Hey man 😮👋🏻 is it Kendale Primary International School?? Because I was also offered a job there. I’m excited and concerned at the same time. I’m afraid that with the second wave of Corona virus, things are gonna end up being bad there and they may have a second lockdown and schools will close. It’s a perfect opportunity, but I’m afraid of the current situation and that it may get worse.
@@munaalazzeh2669 yes yes same school. where are you from?
yeah I also thought about the second wave but we've literally been through the first wave at home haha. I'll just mask it up and sanitize 😂
I am from Jordan actually I am half Jordanian half Russian. yes of course it is really important to wear a mask but still the numbers are increasing crazy in Rome , and it is a little bit scary. And I am really scared of the idea that you might end up being on a lockdown with no work and you can’t go back to your country I mean that would be really scary and a big problem for us as foreigners in Rome.
@@munaalazzeh2669 yes yes I get you, I've been seeing that the cases are going up too 🙈💀 so I'm just hoping that it settles a bit first. have you spoken to someone at the school about this? if there's a second wave, what would possibly happen?
No not yet.they sent me the employment contract today but I haven’t decided yet but I’m going to send them an email asking them all these questions. Is it OK to sign the contract after a few weeks to see if the situation there is going to become any better before deciding or do I need to give them my decision right now since they sent me the contract?
What about you did they sent you the contract? Have you decided yet?
From which heaven and I say this respectfully did this Goddess come from ?
