If you’ve been keeping an eye on our Journals, you might’ve noticed our post about whether there’s an affordable solution to renting in Hong Kong, or even why you shouldn’t live in a hotel. Hong Kong has time and time again been listed as one of the world’s most expensive cities to live in. As of November, 2020 — The Economist has put Hong Kong in first place next to Paris as the world’s most priciest city when it comes to cost of living, with rent being a big part of that!
So how expensive is expensive?
Whether you’re living in the city already or thinking about moving to Hong Kong, it’s good to understand all the costs that you’ll need to pay. To have a roof over your head, you’ll need to consider the following: Rent, agent fee, security deposit, utilities, furnishings, laundry, cleaning and more…
As you can see, there’s already huge list of items to take care of before you can even call the place you found home.
What does that look like?
To simplify things, here’s a full break down of what you’ll need to pay:
*Prices are for a standard studio apartment 130sqft and 12 months rental
