Cost of Living

Monthly cost of living in Belfast (Single person)

It depends on one’s lifestyle. But just a rough idea as per me for single person sharing accommodation (as of Jan 2020).

• Rent + broadband + energy + broadband bills = £300 - £450 (depending on size of room facilities like ensuite/storage).
•  Grocery = £80-100 (own cooking)
• Eating out = £50-100
• Bus travel within city range = £50-70
• Car maintenance/ insurance / petrol/ MOT  = £ 150 - £200
• Hair cut/ barber = £10-20
• Mobile = £10-30 depending on plan
• Misc = £100

As per my experience average cost of living for a family with kids is around £1100-£1300.

Optional:

Note: You have to account for additional India travel as extra.

·    TV license fee = optional £145 per year

·    TV packages = £20-50 optional

·    Gym membership = £20-40
