How much does it cost to live in Brazil alone?
To live in Natal on a moderate budget, you'll need around $620/month. That covers renting a studio in a normal area ($264), weekday lunches out ($122), weekend casual meals ($54), a daily coffee, tea, or other cheap drinks ($74), a monthly transit pass ($37), and a few taxi rides ($68). No gym, no dining out every night — just everyday life.
How much does it cost to live in Brazil for two?
If there are two of you, plan on around $1,083 ≈ €968/month — a proper apartment ($372), meals and daily drinks for both, two transit passes, and more taxi rides.
What does it cost to raise a family in Brazil?
With a child, the total comes to around $1,233 ≈ €1,102/month. Kids eat less, rarely pay for transit, but you'll need more taxi rides and little extras add up fast. School fees not included.
