Sabaideeeee. Lao is becoming a new country to live or expat in if you like it quiet or laid back. Also, the Hmong people are amazing too, and add to an interesting way of life in Lao. 🇱🇦🫡
I’m a US Citizen and this is amazing to see. I can just imagine working remotely and living in China paying $600 monthly rent for a 4 br apt. This is sadly my unrealized dream for now. ✌🏾
Make sure that you have proper internet access to do your job. Some western sites are blocked in China and use of VPNs are highly restricted. If you use a VPN to access a website that’s banned by the government of China you are subject to arrest.

Hi Byanca, all I can say is WOW! What an amazing apartment. Large space with so many upgrades. I noticed the tray ceilings, decorative wall accents are those marble floors? Also it sounds like they even have automatic curtains! Also the appliances are amazing. But the price, so amazingly low by western standards. It also sounds like there is a high level of service which is important when you are renting. Thank you to your friend and her husband for allowing you to give us such a great tour of their beautiful apartment! Love the China content, as always I will check everyday to see if you have a new video which are always interesting and entertaining!
@@MDonovan Probably not, buying is seen as a family generational investment in China, probably paid $350K for the place, at least there is no property tax in China.
$7000 USD a month and higher in Manhattan NYC For a 4 bedroom apartment. The reason is there are not many 4 bedrooms in the city. So I can tell you this price maybe from 1960 New York. Never to be seen again. So China is cheap for such a high standard.
So nice to see a modern view of China. How much progress has been made there! I recall a vlog you made some time back with this couple. They seem so happy to be back in China. Should we assume this was filmed before your accident?😊

That is a stunning apartment. Currently in Sydney Australia that sort of apartment would cost you over a thousand a werk! And over 4000 a month AUD. Sydney is one of the most expensive cities in the world today

Here’s How to Survive Winter Pollution in Chengdu • Chengdu generally experiences quite high levels of pollution in winter: a mix of increased power usage, motor pollution, close proximity to industry, and unlucky topography are just a few reasons why. The winter tends to bring the highest AQI (Air Quality Index) readings, causing hard-to-ignore damage to both our health and our moods. • But it must be said that because of government efforts to move factories out of residential areas, amongst other things, it has, on average, gotten better over the years. Unlike some regions in China’s Northeast, which experience huge peaks and troughs, Chengdu generally has a continuous moderate-to-high pollution level throughout the season. • Whilst we don’t all have the luxury of escaping the city when it gets bad, we are luckily more equipped than ever to monitor and protect ourselves from pollutants. As awareness increases of the dangers of PM2.5s (small particles believed to be the most damaging to our health), so does the range of products and services that can help - and some are more affordable than you’d think. • The pollution can be especially dangerous for sensitive groups: children, the elderly and pregnant women. Here are some tip how to keep safe this winter:
Please do the same review for a 50 year old male single expat. He doesn't eat a lot and he doesn't want to own a lot for a minimal life style. All he needs is a) a studio or a single room apartment b) internet & cellphone c) a small desk and a chair That's it! Thanks in advance
We hear about the glut of housing units in China due to massive over building the past few years. This may be why rents for new units are so cheap, and why the nearby buildings are still vacant. Could also explain the additional perks landlords are willing to provide to renters. Thanks for the video... very interesting.
Rent is cheap as no property taxes that needs to be added to the rent. They don't have a $460 monthly condo association fee that needs to be added to the rent (theirs is $60) They don't have $2500/annual insurance bill, but just $120, which needs to be added to the rent.
Cost of living in Chengdu is not high in general especially when it comes to renting, and if it’s not super central not hard to get a good deal like this.
I will be moving to Chengdu soon with my Chinese partner. Would love to know a bit more info on where this place is and how I could get in contact with the apartment agent. Thanks in advance!
That is becausej no real enforced minimum wage. Labor is dirt cheap in China. There is HUGE disparity in pay in China that wouldn't b allowed in Western countries. The average farctory worker building Apple iPhones is only paid $289.98 United States Dollar per month. A minimum wage McDonald's worker in California is paid $20/hour or can make half the salary of a Chinese work in just one day whereas a Chinese worker works a month. So, yo see the disparty and while you can eat so cheap and have delivery so cheap in China.
@@JasonVu-h7tAre you sure you're not funny?2,000 $ is right,Who else will go to the factory? Takeaway workers can earn more than 1500 $ a month if they work hard.😅
The convenience of having everything delivered right to your door is one of the best things about living in China. It saves so much time and makes life so much easier. Truly a modern-day convenience!
Wow...its very affordable...$600ish for rent👍 that's the price I pay for my utilities every month..the rent is outrageous $3200 a month but I don't feel bad cuz I own it.
Just happened to see your videos, and I must say the cost of living must be quite different than the US, meaning most Chinese probably can't afford her luxury.
$600 is a very nice price tag for what you get for many in the west. But I imagine for someone earning in that economy it may not be considered cheap to them lol.
Don't think it's a real price or apartment in ChengDu... Don't get too excited, even property market in China is in slump past 2 years, but won't be in such dirt cheap price. Mostly I can find 2 bedrm flat around US$1200-$1500 range. Be realistic, no name no truth. With simple mentality.. this is Internet to remind all.
Did you know that London (UK) has way many more surveillance cameras than Ch!nese cities? Why noone says anything about London, then? Oh I know, because the BS propaganda is only anti Ch!na! ... Dude the surveillance cameras are there for people's safety, if something bad ever happens (which usually never does in Ch!na) then you'll be able to have justice because it will be recorded on camera. Do you actually believe than the government has nothing better to do than spy 1.4 billion people daily movements? C'mon! Western media lies so much to make Ch!na look bad and they would say anything, even if it doesn't make sense, but the fact that people blindly believe it without even questioning is shocking! I live in China and everybody here is happy, safe and free. Also the credit score thing is also lies, 99% of everything you hear about Ch!na is lies. I recommend you turn off your TV and start questioning the lies you are being fed.
Seriously? Do people actually believe that? Did you know that London UK has way more surveillance cams than ch!na? Noone says anything about it, right?

it is so convenient to live in China, you can get everything delivered to your door
Literally everything!

Thank you!!
In Vancouver Canada you could rent one room for that money, a small one bedroom apartment will probably cost you $3000 per month.
You can’t get to rent like this Lux Apt. with $600 here in US.
Wow… China 🇨🇳 is way more affordable living standards than 🇺🇸. 😊👍
BG~❤️
That’s true!
But for most of the local people, they are too poor to afford it.
@@rocketmangenesis so who have bought all of those apartments around ?
Wow! That’s unbelievable! Here in the states based on location that could cost anywhere from 5k to 20k per month…China…hmmm
It is unbelievable
I am from Chengdu , its IMPOSSIBLE that you can rent such a beautiful 4 bedroom apartment with USD600 .
@6:43 - USD$400 installed is a good price. USD$1000 in Australia easily.
@2:38 - you pay a premium for being near a school ( likely $100 per month)
@20:30 - parking space below ground there - you will find bomb shelters down there too
Asia (East ASIA to be precise) is the FUTURE! Yeah!
i pay 1800 CAD for 1b1b here in Canada, 120 CAD for electricity and around 100 for internet and phone bills.

I love Chengdu, i will come back to visit again.😍🥰
Is there airbnb in china?
Questions...why Bianca and Shu look much alike...a typical twin sisters.
Prices are good in China. I now have two :)
Nice apartment! The downside of renting in China is no laws for renters protection.
The answer is have, but the cost and time of hiring a lawyer and going to court are not worth it.😊
What agency did your friend use to help them find that apartment?
Who did your friend use to help them find that apartment?
How easy is it to get a working visa since theres no digital nomad visa?
$600 is a very nice price tag for what you get for many in the west. But I imagine for someone earning in that economy it may not be considered cheap to them lol.
so basically they have "smart" technology...aka 'Google' or 'Siri' or 'Alexa"......OBVIOUSLY this is a well to do family in China, not the norm
Front door opens out? Very odd 😮
@worldview2134: When exterior doors swing outward, more interior space is freed for use. An outswing door is a safer to exit due to an emergency.

Sue has that ozzy slang don't you guys reckon mate. If you hear an Australian say 17 your no lol
Which websites or agents can I use to find apartments to rent in Chengdu?
$600 4 bedroom share with 2 friends $200 each sublease 6 months cost me $100 x 6
Looks like my apartment in Zhuhai.
Why not USA, or Philippines
You didn’t tell us where this place is? Could be anywhere in China
Read the video title. It says Chengdu. A city with over 20 million people.
