relocating questions: prices, expences

Postby yoavsh » Tue Aug 02, 2005 8:23 am

Hi...
I'm starting a new job which will require me to relocate to Cyprus. As my salary havn't been decided yet, i have a few question about the living costs, and any help would be great:

can you give me the prices of these, for example:

litre of petrol
bread
milk
movie ticket
bigmac
babysitter (per hour)
kindergarden (for a month)
yoplait
second hand Mazda Lantis (323), 2002 model
beer
Kg. of oranges
Kg. of tomatoes

Another thing, Where is the best area for living in Limassol?
Is there an area there where most of the foreigners live?
What is the average rent for a well kept flat, 3 bed rooms in a good area of limassol?

I know these are a lot of questions, but I believe this would give me a pretty good idea of the salary i should ask for.

I thank you all,

Y.

These are some approximate prices:

litre of petrol: 50c
bread: 50c
milk: 55c/liter
movie ticket: 4 pounds
bigmac: 3 pounds for the meal
babysitter (per hour): 5-10 pounds (not sure about this)
kindergarden (for a month): I don't know
yoplait: what?
second hand Mazda Lantis (323), 2002 model: it depends. maybe around 4000 pounds duty paid

beer: it depends on the size, where you buy it, if it is local or imported. I belive the cheapest you can get should be around 60c per can
Kg. of oranges: not sure
Kg. of tomatoes: not sure

Best area depends on what is best for you.

Is there an area there where most of the foreigners live?

The tourist area and around the enaerios area.

What is the average rent for a well kept flat, 3 bed rooms in a good area of limassol?

about 350 pounds per month

[quote="yoavsh"]Hi...

A friend has 3 bed house 10 mins from town centre. Nicely kept. Part furnished but most essential.

Rent depends on stay length but about C£375.

She may even negotiate as I know she needs the dough.
