The price of groceries and dining out is also high due to the importation of many food items. Transportation costs can vary, but are generally reasonable, especially if using public transportation. Utilities such as electricity, water, and internet are also a significant part of the monthly budget. Health care is of high quality but can be expensive if private services are used. Education, particularly international schooling, can also be a significant expense for those with children.
