Cost of Living in Luxembourg

"The cost of living in Luxembourg is generally high, with prices for basic goods and services being comparable to those in other European countries. Housing costs are particularly high, with rental prices for apartments in the city centre being among the highest in Europe. Groceries and other everyday items are also expensive, although the cost of eating out is relatively low. Transportation costs are also high, with public transport tickets being relatively expensive," explained one expat living in Luxembourg.

"Living in Luxembourg may be more expensive than living in the United States in some areas, such as housing and transportation. However, Luxembourg has a lower cost of living overall, with lower taxes and prices for food, clothing, and other everyday items. Additionally, Luxembourg has a high minimum wage, which can help offset the cost of living," said one person in Luxembourg.

"The average cost of housing in Luxembourg is relatively high compared to other countries in Europe. Renting an apartment in Luxembourg can cost anywhere from €800 to €2,000 per month, depending on the size and location. Buying a property in Luxembourg can be even more expensive, with prices ranging from €2,000 to €4,000 per square meter," said one expat in Luxembourg.

"Our rental is higher than our mortgage. The euro is about 1.5 times the dollar. The average similiar sized home rents for between 3500 and 4200 euro per month. We get paid in US dollars with a subsidy to equalize the cost of living here. Our home is rented in the US, so we contribute to our rent payment here. Then get an adjustment to cover the increased cost of fuel, electricity, food etc," remarked one in Bertrange.

"The rental price for a nice 1 bedroom apartment in Luxembourg can range from around $1,000 to $2,000 per month, while a nice 2 bedroom apartment can range from around $1,500 to $3,000 per month," said one expat living in Luxembourg.

"Rental properties in Luxembourg typically include a refrigerator, stove, oven, dishwasher, washing machine, and dryer. Additionally, some properties may include a microwave, toaster, and other small kitchen appliances," remarked one expat living in Luxembourg.
