"The cost of living in St. Peter can be considered moderate to high, depending on one's lifestyle.

The cost of utilities such as electricity, heating, cooling, and water is also relatively high. Groceries can be costly as well, with prices for items such as bread, milk, and eggs being higher than in many other countries. Eating out at restaurants can also be expensive, particularly at high-end establishments. Transportation costs can vary, with public transportation being relatively affordable, but owning and maintaining a car can be quite costly due to high fuel prices and maintenance costs. Healthcare in Barbados is of a high standard, but it can be expensive if you do not have health insurance.
