Average cost of living in Singapore is manageable to the majority of the locals. But compared to other southeast asian countries, we are the highest. Basic lifestyle here can be managed easily. Of course if you have plan to start a family, you need to cost in the fees for your children.

guess u are from india. cost of living here depends on ur type of living, how u spend ur weekends etc.... rentals can be high if u take up condo or low if u explore options of HDB....
