Vilnius is the capital of Lithuania and the most coveted destination in Lithuania, which is one of the reasons why prices are somewhat higher.
Life in Vilnius is not as busy as let’s say in big European capitals, and there’s less of the typical city hustle and bustle.
Therefore, you can enjoy a combination of capital lifestyle with a spice of relatively slow life.
Keep in mind that with entering the Euro-zone life has become more expensive though. Living in the city center can especially be quite expensive, rent-wise.
Prices are reasonable in Vilnius when it comes to eating out, restaurants are good, and you get good worth for your money. You can expect most of meals to contain lots of potatoes, pork and garlic. If you want to save some money, there are always ways in which you can do so, this country is rich with all kinds of restaurants and types of food.
MARKETS
Prices are slowly rising on the rise in Vilnius, but at least it offers a wide range of groceries, from fresh fruits and veggies (which are mostly imported though, since this is a rather cold country) to a bunch of local ingredients which will make your meals delicious. The lack of fruit and veggies is compensated by the amount of fresh fish at a decent price.
TRANSPORTATION
Well organized public transportation is one of the plus sides of living in Vilnius and many other cities in Lithuania. Buses are usually on time and tickets aren’t expensive. Also, there is a cheap transportation fee if you are a student. Monthly pass for public transport is cheap even if you aren’t one though.
UTILITIES (MONTHLY)
Bills are of a reasonable pricing in Vilnius. They cost around 160$ for all basic ones (like gas, electricity, waste services, heating, cooling, etc) and all this in an apartment that is larger than medium – we’re talking around 85m2. Internet is very fast all around Lithuania and unbelievably cheap, costing only 12$ a month.
SPORTS & LEISURE
Enjoying sports and staying fit are a pleasure that is most expensive in Vilnius in comparison to other cities in Lithuania, but are still not as they would be in many, many other countries around the world. A membership in a gym or a fitness club costs only around 40$ a month. Cinema tickets aren’t expensive either – at least not by European standards: they cost 8$ each.
CLOTHING & SHOES
Shopping for clothing and shoes isn’t the cheapest thing to do in Vilnius – and is on par with the more prosperous European cities as well. Jeans of good quality like Levi’s cost more than 70$ and that is definitely pricey, while quality running sneakers are above 90$. The prices are bound to go higher in the near future.
RENT PER MONTH
Prices of rent are growing very quickly in Vilnius and it is known that the most expensive place to live in – is precisely the capital. It’s still possible to find a decent place to live at a price you can afford, but that’s mostly on the outskirts of town. An apartment in downtown Vilnius will cost you a bit less than 600%.
How Does the Average Person Spend Their Money in Vilnius?
The average person in Vilnius spends their money like most people around the world – on food!
Then, the next expense for a hypothetical person living in the capital would definitely be rent.
Rent is still reasonably high, though in the future it might approach unreasonable heights because the prices are growing by day.
Restaurants can get pretty pricey in Vilnius which is why they take up almost 15% of all expenses of an average person in this city, along with transportation which isn’t as expensive, but it is an everyday necessity.
The problem with Vilnius is that the prices are slowly growing to average euro-zone levels, yet the salary growth is slow, which makes it impossible for an average consumer to buy all necessities.
However, other statistics state that prices and wages alike have been going up at about 6% annually since Lithuania has joined EU.
Whatever the case, the matter of fact is that the average monthly net salary is around 900$ in Vilnius which is the highest average salary in Lithuania.
This still, however, means that an average citizen of this city has to set aside about a half of their salary for rent only.
“Me? Oh—” Did the man hesitate, Sandy wondered. It seemed to be so before he continued. “I’m Everdail.” “You did just what I wanted,” he said. “Let’s get the airplane in. Then we can talk.” Both chums read the box he thrust under their eyes. Arizona had its full share of murder and sudden death. But New Mexico had more than that. Spring passed on there, with warmth for the snow-wrapped mountains, and blistering heat for the dead plains, and her way was marked with lifeless and mutilated forms. GEORGE III. "Yes," answered Shorty. "And I was out late last night." LOST IN A MAZE OF RAILROAD TRAINS. Shorty shoved the bill into his hand, and rushed down in front of Billings. "Well, I for one am goin' through, and I'm goin' to take Pete and Sandy with me," said Shorty, in a loud, confident tone, to brace up the others. "I've always gone through every one o' them things I've struck yit, and this ain't no worse'n the others. But we ought to jump 'em at once, while they're shiverin' over the shelling' we give 'em. They must be shakin' up there yit like a dog on a January mornin'. Why don't we start, I wonder?" "I ask you if you're afraid of me and I get the beginnings of a self-analysis," Dr. Haenlingen said. She walked three steps to the desk and sat down behind it, her hands clasped on the surface, her eyes staring at the younger woman. "If I'd let you go on I suppose you could have given me a yard and a half of assorted psychiatric jargon, complete with suggestions for a change in your pattern." "Now, wait a minute," Dodd said. Norma had been brain-washed into some silly set of slogans: it was his job to break them down. "The clan can elect leaders—" The second piece of land had thriven better than the first. The hops were sturdy and promising beside the brook, and on the higher grounds the new pastures fattened. Reuben had decided to dig up a couple of his old grass meadows and prepare them for grain-sowing in the autumn. The soil was good, and it was only his father's want of enterprise which had kept so much of Odiam as mere grazing land. As for the cows, there was ample provision for them on the new pastures, which Boarzell would continue to yield, even if it refused oats—"But I'll have oats there some day, I reckon," said Reuben, "oats, and barley, and maybe wheat." Richard flushed with pleasure. After all he was not acquitting himself so badly with this fine lady. They talked together for a few more minutes, the boy trying to clip his speech like hers. He noticed how much shorter and crisper it was than his—while he said "d?an't," she could say "don't" twice. Something almost like a sob shook Reuben. Then, ashamed of his weakness, he raised his head, and saw that behind Boarzell the night had lifted, and a cowslip paleness was creeping into the sky. The great dark hump of the Moor showed clearly against it with its tuft of firs. A faint thrill stole through Reuben's tired limbs. Boarzell was always there to be loved and fought for, even if he had no heart or arm but his own. Gradually hope stirred as the dawn crept among the clouds. The wind came rustling and whiffling to him over the heather, bringing him the rich damp smell of the earth he loved. Reuben shook his head. HoME完整一级A免费看片
