Cost of Living

A sketch of rent, food, international-school-level costs vs local life, and what ‘cheap’ actually means.

Two budgets

A Thai-local food-and-condo life and an international-school, imported-cheese life are different countries. Bangkok condos vary wildly by BTS line. Islands add ferry and ‘there is only one supermarket’ inflation.

What to list later

Sample monthly baskets: rent, utilities, mobile, Grab, local meals, international dinners, health insurance. Note that electricity can spike with air-con. Don’t publish fake precision — ranges are more honest.

Notes to expand

  • Street food vs imported groceries
  • Air-con is a line item
  • Deposits and agent fees on rentals
  • Compare three cities, not one number
