Will I save money living in Istanbul?
We asked expats if they save money living in Istanbul. They said...
"Living in Istanbul can be significantly cheaper than living in the United States. The cost of living in Istanbul is generally lower than in the US, with rent, groceries, and transportation being much more affordable. Additionally, the Turkish Lira is weaker than the US Dollar, meaning that the same amount of money can go further in Istanbul. As a result, living in Istanbul can be a great way to save money," commented one expat who made the move to Istanbul, Turkey.
