Will I save money living in Cairns?

"The cost of living in Cairns, compared to the United States can vary greatly depending on your lifestyle and spending habits. Generally, some expenses such as healthcare and education can be cheaper in Australia due to government subsidies. However, other costs like groceries, dining out, and consumer goods can be more expensive in Cairns than in many parts of the United States. Rent and housing prices can also be higher in Cairns, especially in the city center or near the coast. Therefore, whether you save money or not will depend on your income, lifestyle, and how you manage your budget," remarked another expat in Cairns, Australia.
