Housing & Living Expenses

Austria is relatively expensive, cost wise, with monthly rent in the city centre at around 560 Euros ($720 or £450) for a one bedroom apartment and 1200 Euros ($1600 or £960) for a three bedroom apartment. Outside the city centre you’ll be looking at a mildly more reasonable 470 Euros ($610 or £380) for a one bedroom apartment and 920 Euros ($1200 or £740) for a three bedroom apartment.

Food is also similar, with a meal at a restaurant ranging from 8 to 40 Euros ($10-$52 or £6.40-£32), a litre of milk going for 1 Euro ($1.30 or £0.80), 500g of bread going for 1.50 Euros ($1.90 or £1.20), 12 eggs going for 3 Euros ($3.90 or £2.40) and a litre of water going for 0.43 Euros ($0.56 or £0.34).

Luxuries vary, as a pack of cigarettes can go for around 4.50 Euros ($5.80 or £3.60), but a litre of beer only costs around 1.70 Euros ($2.20 or £1.40) and a bottle of mid-range wine only goes for about 5.30 Euros ($6.80 or £4.20).
