Question by Avish G: What is the cost of living in Moscow compared to Australia?
I need to find out what I would expect to pay for rent, public transport, entertainment, groceries, etc in moscow. I’m not extravagant so estimations need not be over-the-top. Also, what would I have to earn in Moscow to maintain a similar lifestyle if my salary in Sydney was US$ 100k after tax ?

For normal life as in Sidney you need spend per a month about 3.000-5.000$ american,not aussie $ ,rent must be about 1.000$ per a month- middle price,transport-bus about 70 cents…Its a life of middle class,about high level dont know.
But if you will make 8.000$ per a month i think it would very good.

The cost of living in Moscow can vary dramatically.
The majority of local people make LESS then average
income in Sydney, not even close to $ 100K, and they make it ok, knowing places and ways how to make living cheaper.
So my advice would be – get some guidance from local
people and they help you with cost of living and how not to
get ripped on that. If you do so, you'll be just fine.
