Is the cost of living in Zimbabwe high?

We asked people how much they someone comfortably live on in Zimbabwe, they wrote:

"The cost of living in Zimbabwe is generally considered to be relatively low compared to other countries. Prices for basic necessities such as food, clothing, and housing are generally lower than in other countries. However, the cost of living has been increasing in recent years due to inflation and the devaluation of the Zimbabwean dollar. Additionally, the cost of imported goods is often higher than in other countries due to the country's weak economy," remarked one in Zimbabwe.
