"The cost of living in Oban, is considered moderate compared to other parts of the UK. Housing is relatively affordable, with rental prices being lower than in major cities such as Edinburgh or Glasgow. The cost of groceries and dining out is also reasonable, although it can be slightly higher than in other parts of Scotland due to the town's remote location. Utilities such as electricity, heating, and internet are on par with the national average. Transportation costs are also moderate, with affordable public transport options and petrol prices similar to the rest of the UK. However, owning a car can be more expensive due to the higher cost of insurance in this area. Overall, while Oban is not the cheapest place to live in Scotland, it offers a good balance between cost and quality of life," commented one expat who made the move to Oban, Scotland.
