Will I save money living in Basel?

Answer this Question

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

"Living in Basel can be more expensive than living in the United States in some areas, such as housing and transportation. However, the cost of living in Basel is generally lower than in the United States, with groceries, healthcare, and entertainment being significantly cheaper. Additionally, the Swiss franc is generally stronger than the US dollar, meaning that the same amount of money can buy more in Basel than in the United States. Therefore, overall, living in Basel can be more cost-effective than living in the United States," remarked another expat who made the move to Basel, Switzerland.
