Trying to figure out if I can make it work without going broke. I am trying to save money as much as possible!!
leuven_student_lifeCan you live in Brussels on a tight budget?
leuven_student_lifeAccepted answer
mister_bxl_77Possible (if you're smart about it). Rent is the big one; you can find a room or sharing a flat for about €1,500 a month, but a studio for a normal life usually runs you between €1,500 and €2,100. Other costs like food and stuff average around €795.77 (not including rent) and you should budget €56 for a STIB/MIVB subscription

vibes_only_beNaw man i dont see it like that... i was out late last night and the homelessness and junkies on the street is way more then before!! (it's getting kinda heavy in some areas) makes it harder to feel at home if u dont got much cash left over
sunnyside_belgium2Hardly. I find that if you actually want a decent life without stressing every single day you need closer to €2,100 a month
Haha_BelgiumActually, where you pick your commune is the BIGGEST thing for your wallet
leuven_student_lifeThanks!
