Is the cost of living in Crucita high?

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

"The cost of living in Crucita is considered to be relatively low compared to many other countries. Rent for a one-bedroom apartment in the city center can be quite affordable, while outside the city center, it can be even cheaper. The cost of utilities such as electricity, heating, cooling, water, and garbage is also quite low. Groceries in Crucita are also reasonably priced. Local markets offer fresh produce, meat, and seafood at lower prices than in many Western countries. Eating out in restaurants is also quite affordable, with local meals being cheaper than international cuisine. Transportation costs are also low in Crucita. Public transportation is widely available and affordable. Gasoline prices are lower than in many other countries, making owning and operating a vehicle more affordable. Healthcare in Crucita is also relatively inexpensive. Both public and private healthcare services are available at a fraction of the cost compared to countries like the United States. However, it's important to note that while the cost of living is low, wages in Ecuador are also lower than in many Western countries. Therefore, the affordability of living in Crucita can depend largely on one's income or savings," remarked one in Crucita.
