Will I save money living in Nantes?

"The cost of living in Nantes can be lower than in many cities in the United States, especially major ones like New York or San Francisco. Housing tends to be more affordable in Nantes, and public transportation is both efficient and reasonably priced, potentially saving you the cost of maintaining a car. Groceries and dining out can also be less expensive in Nantes compared to the US. However, this can vary depending on your lifestyle and spending habits. Additionally, healthcare in France is generally cheaper than in the United States. On the other hand, taxes can be higher in France, and you may find some goods and services, such as electronics or gym memberships, to be more expensive. Therefore, while you may save money in certain areas, overall costs will depend on a variety of factors," said another expat in Nantes, France.
