A house about US$1.3 million, A condo US $700,000. A honda Civic US$40,000, You pay for parking everywhere, pay to enter the city in a car everyday. Cigerattes are expensive, Beer is expensive. Groceries are cheap. public transport is good and cheap, Food is cheap in food courts but expensive in restaurants. If you have a Salary of US $4,000 per month you got a good deal. Anything lesser will be stretching the budget. Are you getting your lodgin paid for. Almost everybody speaks english and its practically a safe place to live

I agree with Saran's answer, but the price he's mentioning is for buying the property. I dunno about house...but... I suggest you rent a room or whole unit condo, it'll be cheaper than buying. For a room rent in condo the range is between 450-1,000SGD (spore dollar), if you want to rent the whole condo it'll cost you around 1,600-8,000sgd. If you want cheaper place, I suggest you to look for an HDB (government housing). For 3bedroom and 1 hall HDB will cost around 1,200-2,000sgd, but if you are renting a room only in an HDB flat, it's about 300-600sgd. Food is pretty cheap compared to any western countries, but more expensive than any other sout east asian countries since spore has the highest standard of living here. For example a portion of Fried rice will be about 3-6sgd. For smoker, spore is a hell. A pack of ciggarete is about 8-10sgd. Drink is also expensive here... Car is costly but public transportation is good and affordable. Just make sure you get the EZ link card as soon as you reach spore, it save more money than paying by cash. Telephone bill...I suggest you to get post paid line from starhub, it's cheap and give you free incoming call. So you can get callback card, which will make you safe even more. So...say you are renting a room in an HDB flat, travelling by public transport and eating normally with once a week clubbing...I think 1,500-2,000 sgd is enough to cover all your monthly expenses. If you have anything else you wanna know...just msg me, will be glad to help... :o)
