Is the cost of living in Sweden high?

"The cost of living in Sweden is generally considered to be high, especially in the larger cities. Prices for basic necessities such as food, housing, and transportation can be quite expensive, and the cost of entertainment and leisure activities can also be quite high. However, the cost of living in Sweden is offset by the high wages and generous social benefits that are available to citizens and residents," remarked another expat who made the move to Sweden.
