marketing_bruges_ladyHey guys. We are moving here soon and i am trying to figure out if we can live well. We are a family of three with a one-year-old and we expect a net salary of €3,000–€3,400 plus a company car. We are thinking about renting in Auderghem but i am worried about the cost of everything here ?
Accepted answer
garden_teacher_70Life is pricy because of taxes and rent but it depends on where u live. For a single person things cost about €759.95 without rent and for a family of 4 its around €1,915.47 without rent. Having that company car helps alot because it can save u €400-500 a month compared to a private car !
map_reader3000 to 3400 is enough to live but u wont have much extra money left over for trips. thanks
ghent_care_giverJust keep in mind that what u pay for healthcare depends on what u earned 2 years ago. It can be a surprise !
not_so_sure_guy3Just dont know. Living on just 1 income is hard for many people here even with a good salary.
the_pro_guide2The standard of living is very high though ! Belgium is in the global top 10 for that .
vibe_check_be2Auderghem is a bit 'fancy' so u will pay more for rent there ! It is one of the most expensive areas in Brussels for sure. Just watch out for the 'crazy' prices in that part of town !!
