What is the average living cost in China?
Despite its remarkable economic achievements in the past two decades, China is still considered to be a developing country where natural resources and labor cost are extremely cheap. Therefore, the income level is comparatively low. Hence, the living cost is much cheaper than you can imagine. Especially, the cost of food, clothes, utilities, rent, electronics and public transportation, etc. are on the very low side compared with Western standards. The average monthly salary of a university graduate in large cities is normally around 1500-2000RMB in their first three years of employment. Most of the Chinese people enjoy their lives and live happily with this amount of money per month.
