Will I save money living in Bilbao?

Answer this Question

We asked expats if they save money living in Bilbao. They said...

"The cost of living in Bilbao, Spain is generally lower than in many cities in the United States. This means that you could potentially save money by living in Bilbao. Housing, groceries, and transportation costs are typically less expensive in Bilbao than in the U.S. However, the amount of money you can save will depend on your lifestyle, spending habits, and the city in the U.S. you're comparing it to. For instance, living in Bilbao would be much cheaper than living in New York City, but the difference might not be as significant when compared to a smaller, less expensive U.S. city. Additionally, healthcare in Spain is generally cheaper than in the U.S., which could also contribute to potential savings. However, it's important to note that salaries in Spain are often lower than in the U.S., which could offset some of these cost of living differences," wrote a member who made the move to Bilbao , Spain.
