How much does it cost to live in Indonesia alone?
To live in Semarang on a moderate budget, you'll need around $456/month. That covers renting a studio in a normal area ($320), weekday lunches out ($52), weekend casual meals ($20), a daily coffee, tea, or other cheap drinks ($51), a monthly transit pass ($13), and a few taxi rides (). No gym, no dining out every night — just everyday life.
How much does it cost to live in Indonesia for two?
If there are two of you, plan on around $684 ≈ €599/month — a proper apartment ($413), meals and daily drinks for both, two transit passes, and more taxi rides.
What does it cost to raise a family in Indonesia?
With a child, the total comes to around $717 ≈ €628/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.
