Germany is renowned for its high standard of living, efficient public transportation, and excellent healthcare. Indeed, Germany ranks above average in the Better Life Index in terms of quality of life and well-being. Yet, despite these high standards, shopping bills in major German cities are often significantly less than in other major European cities, so the cost of living in Germany is lower than in other major European cities such as Paris, London, Rome, Brussels, and Zurich.
The cost of living in Germany naturally depends on your lifestyle and the city or area you live in, but typically the Cost of Living for the immediate area is one of the lower ones in Germany.
