As-salaam 'alykum from a Northern California native (not in the bay area, but close). The cost of living here is staggering, in fact, only the state of Hawaii is more expensive than the golden state. Comparing current energy costs: here gasoline is at or above $5/gallon. In Malaysia it seems to be around $1.65/gallon. Then there's PG&E, they recently increased rates for electricity and natural gas and more hikes are planned (I live alone and spend $350+/month for a single level house that's just over 1000 sq/ft). The cost of energy drives up prices for everything, and that's one of several reasons for the exodus of residents. I'll be retiring in a few years and Malaysia is on my short list of places to consider. Thank you for this helpful information😁
The reason of cheaper price/gas in Malaysia is due to it highly subsidized by the government for Malaysian vehicles and it considered one of the cheapest in the world. The government also subsidized a list of controlled goods included; cooking oil, rice, sugar, wheat, chicken, fertilizer etc. These non-Malaysians or who are not living in Malaysia are not allowed to purchase petrol/gas/diesel and controlled items with subsidized price except they are on right visa eg. MM2H but not for tourists.
I love your content and thank you so much for doing the work that you do. I currently live in Canada and plan on visiting this summer inshAllah. I will be staying in KL month for a month and then my parents will join me in August to visit for a few weeks. I’m very interested in the whole process of renting/ making that transition. I just started wearing the hijab a few months ago and so I’m really honestly looking forward to living in a Muslim majority country iA I am particularly interested in the aspect of building a good Muslim community/network of friends. I know that moving can often be very isolating as I’ve lived in the West my whole life and our family has a very large social circle here.
Hey, I have to meet up with you one day! We literally have a lot in common. I am born and raised in San Francisco and own a rental property in Fremont! And, I have my mm2h visa and plan to move there in a year or two in early retirement. I would prefer Penang though as opposed to KL which is very much like SF. Keep up the great videos!!!!
@@sairathemusafir To me, Penang is slightly less crazy than KL. Ok, you have been to Oahu I am sure? Well, I consider Penang to be a mini Oahu that is cheaper and with better food.
But if you went to the suburbs, it do not have to be too far about 15minutes away, the rent can be from usd450 to usd3000 (and this is for gated compound terrace house)
Agree.. But it might be a bit more if you add school (international) cost for the 2 kids... I believe USD 2k per month might be more realistic for a family of 4..
Aoa Saira, thank you for coming up with this information. I really really appreciate as this was very important to me. I live in the SF Bay Area too and I often think about moving to KL after visiting once last year and loving it. I want to practice Islam more and that’s my main reason. However, I do have an autistic child and as I mentioned in one of your other videos, that I’d love to know how’s the special education system in KL as compared to CA? My sole decision of moving to KL from Cali will depend on this one thing as my kid has wonderful teachers and support system in the U.S. that I don’t wanna give it up when I can afford it. Thanks so much once again! I’d also appreciate if anyone in the comments would like to share their experience of special education in Malaysia.
Wasalam and thank you for watching! I did ask about support and education for autistic students in KL, so far haven’t had any replies but I’ll keep trying and research myself as well. Based just on my own experience, there was one time the mall below our apartment did a whole informational festival for people with special needs or disabilities, so I know the community and resources are there iA!
everythingentertaining7290: Do google autism support malaysia and you'll see a list of centres that cater to special needs children. Most of them include phone numbers or emails. Many would be based in KL or in the state of Selangor, where KL is located within. I, personally, know of a good centre in the city of Seremban, which is about an hours' drive south from KL.

Surely there is a special need school for a special kids but mostly run by a private entity. The cost is quite expensive if you a local n making money in RM. But I don't know if the school meets your requirements / curriculum standard. All I know is most of the people with good income have no problems with it.
Sooo informative! Thank you! Here in California, even 2 people income in a single family household is a struggle!! People really are moving away from here. Your videos are helping us all so muchh. Thank you!!

All UA-camrs seems to post about living in Kuala Lumpur city center in a condo lifestyle. What about living in a house outskirts of Kuala Lampur? What is the cost like and housing and amenities???
In msia to live in the landed properties as most msia middle class do is to hv a budget of about rm500-600k for semi detached 2 storey houses n rm300k-400k 2 storey terrace houses, pretty the same price thruout msia n a bit higher if the location is in the klang valley where kl is located.the terrace could fetch up to rm700k n above n semi detached would be as nearly as rm1 mil.
i live in the Selangor state, about 30min drive from KL, u can check out PJ, USJ, Shah Alam to name a few. Most area have various public transport and job opportunity plenty. This is what we spend as local on mid class area. So for expat, your might want to adjust accordingly. Landed intermediate double story terrace house 4 room, 3 toilet, unfurnish, u can get rental around $500/mo. If you are on AC all the time, electricity bills about $80/mo. Water bill about $15/mo. Sewage $20/year. Municipal tax about $80/year. Land tax about $30/year. Sometime got gated area, security fee about $20/month. Internet fiber 100Mbps $18/mo Groceries, go for Lotus (prev known as Tesco) or Giant hypermarket. You can get better deals at Econsave, NSK or similar. Cheaper than what mention by Saira. Some areas got wet markets. To add to Saira video, health u can go to Gov hospital. Ours similar to NHS. Specialist about $20 per visit. $500 for having a baby. Dental, few dollars. But gov, u have to wait a bit. Equipment wise top tier. I experience myself couple of times. Healthcare not a problem, u wont get broke. If take this path, i suggest get a car. Used Perodua Myvi King about $7k. Cheap to maintain, its a reskin Toyota. Its an investment, coz u can get around to get better deals around town. Gas about $0.70/liter
Glad to know you left Malaysia. You have been over-promoting this place as paradise for expats to settle here because of the favorable exchange rates. The locals who are struggling dont like that so much
Try calculate the before tax income for expenses in both cities e.g. if the tax you were paying is 25% in Fremont, you need to earn USD 8840 to spend this USD 6630.
Thank you for such a great video - good analysis and comparison of two cities. I request if you can also factor in kids education cost in Malaysia in your next video. Thank you so much!
You’re most welcome! I can’t speak to the private education cost since we don’t have our kids enrolled in school. But I can share our homeschooling costs and experience 👍
I think digital nomad visa is valid for 1 year only , what are the options after that ? also , you didnt talk about school fees . can you please talk about it as well ?
Since I homeschool my kids, I haven't looked into school fees. However, I have heard that some private schools charge around $3000 USD/year per student. You can renew the digital nomad visa for one more year after the first year.
Oh Wow San Francisco is expensive even for someone living in UK. What area in KL did you decide to stay? And Thanks for the video, I was waiting for it. ❤
We have stayed in Eastern KL, near Cheras but still just 10 mins from downtown. And then we stayed in South Bangsar (our favorite short-term rental apartment is there!) and we have loved both places.
Yes, Sf Bay Area in some cases is more expensive than London. Mt. View 2 bed apt is $4000-5000, Palo Alto $6000+ . For London, Canary wharf,Hammersmith is $3000. Kensington more like $4000. I love Hammersmith. I lived in close to Ravenscourt Park for a short while. Ery good transport and tons of halal food. London isn’t cheap at all, but I feel the SF Bay Area is on another level. For Malaysia I’ve only lived in Subang Jaya. Not too bad and the LRT goes all the way to KLCC.
@@155stw I live in the centre of England, so much cheaper here than London, but in recent years the rent n house prices have gone ridiculously up n also inflation of everything else. But alhumdulillah from will of Allah we are doing ok.
Not sure about a concentration of Muslim expats (Brickfields and Masjid Jamek have a large South Asian Muslim population). But I really liked South Bangsar and the Midvalley City areas!
@@sairathemusafir thx for your prompt reply sis. I’ve contacted the Malaysian embassy in the UK by email enquiring about the new MM2H visa. Will see if they reply.

Very safe!!! I would not hesitate to go as a solo female traveler myself. Obviously have to take common sense precautions anywhere you go, but I felt way safer than even walking around some large cities in the US
Hi please can you name some of the all inclusive appartments that you mentioned in this video. Also what are the websites that you can use to find these apartments
she compared it to an airbnb, not an actual rental. so her estimate makes sense for someone who does not have airbnb. airbnbs probably make double their income if you rent it for 30 days+ than the original price they pay to the bank
California is definitely nice, but the costs have become quite outrageous. Social and economic requirements are nothing like how they were 40 years ago. Time to keep moving.
Salam sis,why dont you go somewhere else for few days and come back again here for another 3 months,just like what SOLO TRAVEL LOGS has been doing all this while
That much moving is a bit more challenging with a family + kids, plus there's always the change your visit visa will be denied at the airport, yikes! But otherwise, I would love to spend 3-6 months a year in Malaysia!
Sister, do you and your husband work remotely (earning USD?). Or did you manage to find jobs / start a business that caters $2000 in KL? If no, Could you talk about opportunities there job-wise? Was it an easy transitioning job in Cali and job in KL? Did you have to change jobs?
We privately homeschool our kids, since we move to a new country every couple of months. But I've heard that some excellent international schools in KL are around $3000-$5000 USD tuition per year.
I think you were confused with Indonesia mostly Jakarta that is sinking now hence they moved their capital city to Borneo (Kalimantan). Malaysia is a different country and safe country from natural disaster compared to neighbouring countries eg Indonesia, Philippines.

Assalammualaikum ! Malaysian here.
Your estimate of USD 1500-2000 is extremely comfortable living in Malaysia.
Thanks, I agree! Love the quality of life in your beautiful country 🥰
But if you went to the suburbs, it do not have to be too far about 15minutes away, the rent can be from usd450 to usd3000 (and this is for gated compound terrace house)
USD1,500 is very comfortable if living in KL for a family of four. But it depends on how much you spend and location.
I agree! It’s such an affordable place for expats 🙏

600USD a month on groceries...wow that is a lot for a KL standard
