Is the cost of living in Tauranga high?

"The cost of living in Tauranga is considered to be relatively high compared to other cities in the country. Housing is the most significant expense, with the cost of renting or buying a home being higher than the national average. Utilities such as electricity, heating, cooling, and water are also quite expensive. Groceries and food costs are also above average, with prices for items such as meat, dairy, fruits, and vegetables being higher than in other parts of New Zealand. Eating out at restaurants can also be quite costly. Transportation costs, including public transit, petrol, and car maintenance, are also higher than average. However, Tauranga is a compact city, so many residents are able to walk or bike to work, which can help to offset these costs. Healthcare costs are generally reasonable, as New Zealand has a public healthcare system that covers most basic medical services. However, private healthcare and certain procedures or treatments can be expensive. Education costs can vary widely, with public schools being free but private schools charging significant tuition fees. Overall, while Tauranga offers a high quality of life, it is also one of the more expensive cities in New Zealand to live in," wrote a member who made the move to Tauranga, New Zealand.
