"The cost of living in Avignon is considered moderate. Rent for a one-bedroom apartment in the city center can be quite expensive, while outside the city center, it is relatively cheaper. The cost of utilities such as electricity, heating, cooling, water, and garbage is also moderate. Groceries in Avignon can be pricey, with items such as bread, milk, eggs, fruits, and vegetables having a higher cost compared to other cities. Eating out in Avignon can also be expensive, especially in the city center. However, there are cheaper options available outside the city center. Public transportation in Avignon is reasonably priced, with options including buses and trains. Owning a car can be quite expensive, considering the cost of gasoline, maintenance, and parking. Healthcare in Avignon is of high quality, but it can be expensive if you do not have health insurance. Education, especially international schooling, can also be quite costly. Overall, while the cost of living in Avignon can be high compared to other cities in France, it offers a high quality of life, rich history, and beautiful scenery," said one expat in Avignon.
