If you were considering leaving France to live elsewhere, in a country where it is nicer and/or warmer or simply where you think you feel better there, find out before choosing the destination . Indeed, even if the cost of living in France is not cheap, it remains minimal compared to other countries (neighbors, for some). A criterion to take into account. Data accessible through the German website Statista , which unveiled a ranking of countries where the cost of living is the highest of any country in the world.
To achieve this ranking, the statistics portal was interested in several criteria . The amount of rent, water and electricity bills, an average shopping basket, the cost of transport, leisure activities or clothing . Each country of the ranking was noted on the New York comparison , which has a rating of 100. France is not in the top 10 but is in 21 th place with a score of 50.82. The cost of living is therefore half that of New York.
