What does cost of living mean?
Cost of living is the amount of money you need to cover living expenses in a certain place. It generally includes necessities such as housing, food, transport and healthcare – not luxuries. It can be used to compare how much it costs to live in different areas. The cost of living can vary depending on whether you live in a capital city or regional area and differ from state to state and country to country.
