"The cost of living in Maraval is considered to be relatively high compared to other areas in the country. This is largely due to its status as an upscale residential area, with a number of luxury homes and high-end amenities. Housing is the most significant expense, with rental prices for apartments and houses being quite high. Buying property in Maraval is also costly, with prices for homes and land significantly higher than the national average. Groceries and dining out in Maraval can also be expensive, as the area is home to a number of high-end supermarkets and restaurants. However, there are also local markets and eateries where one can find more affordable options. Transportation costs in Maraval are relatively average, with public transportation being quite affordable. However, owning and maintaining a car can be costly, due to the high price of gasoline and vehicle maintenance. Healthcare in Maraval is of a high standard, but it can also be quite expensive, especially for private healthcare services. Public healthcare is available and is more affordable, but it may not offer the same level of service. Overall, while the cost of living in Maraval is high, it is also reflective of the high standard of living in the area," said one person in Maraval.
