Elephant and Castle. Anonymous on Mar 19, Queen does not elect Parliament, does not control the executive, etc. Most of tax is spend on wealfare paid by those who produce ie. How far would 3 million US go in London? Very high unemployment, can't drive my car to work gasoline too high. Need I say more? Prices here should be doubled on everything. Dave on Feb 17, : For people coming from 3rd world Indian subcontinent, London is heaven.
So make sure you talk to the right people because perceptions can be different. If you live in a slum, every other place will seem like heaven. For most of us London is a battle between keeping up with bills and trying to make ends meet. Housing is unaffordable and crime is skyrocketing.

At least for people who get under 3k net pounds monthly. In switzerland apartment rent is similar as in London. He's only 29 anyway good luck London is a beuatiful city i would say similar to delhi but much cleaner, organised and full of wealthy people ondrej on Jan 14, : Laz basically western part of London is better than eastern.
Probably the best locations and most expensive of course suitable for life are close to the Hyde park or river which means - Kensington, Paddington, Chelsea etc. In any case I strongly recommend you to find apartment close to your work - ideally to be able to get there without car or public transport.
I am in my mid 20's and single. Any suggestions on the locations to live near Buckingham street is appreciated. Need some suggestions for managing my money. Helps a lot. Lends perspective as well.
I do have a few more questions. Hope that's okay. Where do you think i should stay? I would prefer a shared accommodation not more than 2 or 3 ppl max. I am willing to spend 1K for rent and utilities 2 In your apartment, do you have a kitchen where you can cook , refrigerator, washing machine, etc?
Or do you need to purchase them separately? Will 1K suffice for all this? Usually in shared houses all the bills are included water, electricity, internet, council tax so you just have to pay for the rent. Tv licence is usually excluded. It can be faster and a bit more expensive with the underground. With a family it can be slightly different though, so it depends on you.
The room is a good size for me:big closet, double bed, a decent desk. In this case it may be worth going a bit out of the really central places, depending on the quality of the house you are searching. Just ask if you need something else : Anonymous on Oct 24, : Davide Hi Davide - I went through your comment below and i am really interested.
I might move to London soon and my take home salary will be the more or less what you have mentioned 4. However, you have mentioned that you are saving 3K!! Now i would really like to know the break up of pounds for rent and utilties. What is your room size, how far is it from citi center and what is the rent you are paying? Could you please help me with this? Sashank Davide on Oct 19, : kumal I strongly disagree with what you say.
Only then, doing this kind of life every single day of the month you would be able to spend all your salary. But you would also do NOT need the flat, as you would eat and live all the time outside! Or you are basically blind. A single person can easily live with a lot less than that. I don't smoke. Once a month I go to the cinema.
Twice a week go out with friends in pubs, drinking like average people. Please feel free to ring me up on if you have any queries. I'll be happy to help with what information I have. I'm a bachelor here, so have got all the time in the world to clarify your queries. Any list available for each country? Anonymous on Aug 23, : Ed Hoar You are the ignorant and ill informed. If a employer pays a gross of 39k wile employee gets on payslip you see 35k a net of 22k and he needs to share rent, go out as little as possible, use public transport, don't buy "expensive" stuff ex.
To do all that gross income needs to be 50k. All "Central London" it's big, most of it except posh areas are council estates with allot of dodgy people who live on benefits. Public transport is overcrowded literally , especially at peak times, wile most infrastructure is old, some of it really old ex. Bakerloo line , comfort it's out of the question wile prices are not cheap.
Roads are full of potholes and insufficient for number of cars, most of tax in UK is spend on "vulnerable people" who have the right to vote talk about conflict of interest , etc etc Safety not a priority to our Socialist Muslim mayor religious terrorism is normal according to him , we are not as bad as "gun free zones" Venezuela but it is not as safe or clean as other big cities ex Tokyo.
PS: for couples with children it's even worse sa tish on Aug 20, : Hi all i have been offered a package of 60K pounds per year. I am planning to come there with my 5 year old kid and wife. Planning to stay in decent apartment not very rich off course in London. We are vegetarians, will not be freaking out too much and usually lead simple life. With this basis how much approximate expenses would occur. Can any one give me some range usually what range it may fall Aditya Halarnakar on Aug 10, : Hi!
Mukesh, I am also planning to live in UK, to earn money n become rich. Shall we go both togather n work togather? Right now m studying about UK on Google. Can any one give me some range usually what range it may fall Ed Hoar on Jul 13, : Hi, I have lived in London for 15 years so ignore most of the comments below as they are very ill informed. But: I cycle everywhere and many people do, we have a good cycle network currently being built at huge cost.
Remember, London is a flat city so cycling is a great and free way to commute. You will live far out, have long commutes to work and find life more difficult. Good luck and make the city work for you! Anonymous on Jun 18, : London is not a place to live unless you are rich or have a very good job IT, finance Rent is ridiculously high as well as everything else I am on London Living Wage and still find it hard to make ends meet I earn approximately per month after tax Anonymous on May 22, : Myanmar is tremendously daring and shameless to the extent of fabricating the following made-up news which is clearly against the weakest and helpless Rohingya currently being genocided by culprit Myanmar.
Myanmar should not be fooling around with other nation spreading fake and made-up news because other nations are not foolish neither to be easily cheated by the made-up news of culprit Myanmar.
Everyone should take a moment to feel in the shoe of Rohingya currently suffering helplessly who have clearly no future, thanks to the inhumane atrocities carried out by culprit Myanmar. Time to unleash immediate punishment actions upon the greatest Evildoer Myanmar by showering it with the first punishment step of comprehensive sanctions on Myanmar.
The atrocities happens only under the Suu Kyi government, not under the previous government so Suu Kyi should be prosecuted under the international criminal court for crimes against humanity. While Rohingya are suffering inhumanely, shameless Suu Kyi's ministers are busy attempting to expand citis across the country including Yangon as well as places where Rohingya's land and houses were confiscated illegally to accommodate to more probably but not certain foreign investments, mostly coming from like-minded Communist China.
It is time to undo Obama's greatest history mistake and impose comprehensive sanctions on Myanmar immediately again. And this time China must be punished to the extent of being imposed comprehensive sanctions if China violated sanctions on Myanmar.
The greatest virtue is to save a human race such as Rohingya from almost being wiped out. This is exactly where the leadership role of UN must be amplified that fairness and justice prevail internationally under UN. Arjhan Esfahani on Apr 26, : for staying there for at least 3 months any advice you can give to me? Stievano on Apr 18, : Hey everyone. I'm living in Brazil, and I'm planing to relocate to London with my wife.
I'll receive a package of approx 40k. My wife most probably will find work when we settle. Anonymous on Apr 17, : A note to anyone planning to come to London: please don't, we are full.
Thank you. Is this sufficient for to lead a normal life with decent savings. Thanks in advance sid on Apr 01, : If your wife will not find a job those are peanuts.
I plan to come with my wife and a 2 year old child. Is it worth to relocate? Would I be able to sustain a conformable life and save decently? Please note that as a foreigner, you will have to pay a premium on rent!! Do NOT forget about the council tax! Kumal on Feb 11, : adam Also, make sure you try to arrange with your landlord a fixed price for 2 years as typically landlords will increase the rent after one year. I have been living in london for the past 20 years and rented for about half of that time, and it happens every single time.
It is a nice way to save money if you know you will be staying for more than a year! Kumal on Feb 11, : Hello adam, For a flat larger than 50sqm , you will almost certainly will have to search outside the city. Therefore, Zone 2,3. This is for your budget. With 50k net of taxes, you would most likely have to live outside the city, in the outskirts if you want to live unworried. You can also look at places which they call ''up and coming'' like Angel, Islington, Shoreditch.
It has a more alternative vibe and some homeless people, but if you choose the right places, you can find a good street. Also take into account you will have to pay 1, on council tax a year!
Plus utilities of per month more for electricity and water. Plus other 50 for internet. Plus your mobile phone plan for another 50 pounds if you choose a cheap plan. This website is very misleading as it suggest a flat in the city costs 1, per month which is hardly true for a decent place and not a studio. Adam on Feb 09, : Hi! Can you advise on what kind of life a net after taxes 50k per year buys in London?
What are the tradeoffs of a bigger flat in terms of distance from zone 1? If you need a tailored service please contact us at info citrusrelocation. Skip to content. Understanding UK Utility Costs.
How much does gas, electricity, water and council tax cost in London and the UK? This means that you receive all of your gas and electricity from one provider and the cost is combined in one easy bill.
Check out our useful advice on how to take meter readings here. Broadband is another essential utility bill that comes with student housing.
Unless you are living in all-inclusive accommodation, you will be responsible for managing and paying your monthly broadband bill. You may even move in with a broadband provider already in place when you move in. Make sure you find out what provider is being used and check the monthly internet rates. You may be able to save money by switching to a cheaper provider or taking advantage of new sign-up deals.
All properties in the UK also require a TV licence, even if you are only watching programmes on a phone or laptop. London is expensive and you have to accept the fact that it will cost a lot to study in the capital.
