    Guys, it is not that expensive if you compare the cost of living in France in relation to the amount of money you make a month in the US.
    But if you work in France, you will (usually) get a lower pay for the same job. (Im talking about qualified positions). So it won’t sound as cheap once you see your (monthly) pay check in Euros :p

    Are there many people who live in Nice and work in Monaco?
    I've been considering on moving to Nice. I loved the city when I visited !
    Is it possible to live there with a budget of apron 1.000 Euros/month ?
    I loved the city !
    And, how about renting a Bedroom ? I don't want to bother you, but, how much would be the Average.

      it depends on the type of visa you're on!

    How come you don't pay for health care? Is it because you are taxed in France? Taxes are part of your monthly costs which you didn't mention.

    • @WhereTianaTravels
      @WhereTianaTravels  3 роки тому +2

      I should clarify, I don’t pay a monthly fee for healthcare, but i do pay a small co-pay ($20-40) every time I visit the doctor’s which is partially reimbursed to me later.
      Since I’m on a visa that doesn’t allow me to work in France, i’m not obligated to pay taxes here, so that’s not a part of my monthly expenses at the moment, but as a long-stay “tourist” in France I am still eligible to benefit from their healthcare system.
