Will I save money living in Johannesburg?

"Living in Johannesburg can be significantly cheaper than living in the United States. The cost of living in Johannesburg is generally lower than in the US, with rent, groceries, and other everyday expenses costing much less. Additionally, the South African Rand is weaker than the US Dollar, meaning that the same amount of money can go further in Johannesburg than it would in the US," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Johannesburg, South Africa.
