In Europe, gorgeous cities are mostly thought of as being way too pricey, but there is a handful where you won’t break the bank!
From pillar to post, Europe is an utterly breathtaking continent, and discovering it extensively should be on the bucket list of, well, almost everyone. The best thing is that you don’t exactly need to be a billionaire to make the flight.
If you’ve ever dreamed of moving to one of your beloved places, you’ll be relieved to know that to live there, you don’t need to be rich either. In these cities, it doesn’t matter what the salaries are, because there’s a really fair possibility that you’re only going to be fine and pretty darn relaxed.
Gdańsk
It soon becomes clear as you take a short walk around Gdansk. This is an exceptional location, from the music on the streets to the architecture to the many, many world-class restaurants to visit.
We’re not entirely confident you can do any more than Gdansk in terms of living quality. The ‘zloty’ Polish currency means that although some of the salaries can be a little smaller, in addition to stuff like housing, this still makes for much, much cheaper prices on daily goods.
Sevilla
As a hotspot within the domains of Europe, Seville is increasingly rising through the ranks, and understandably so. It’s totally beautiful, and it’s at the core of the history of Spain. Plus, and it’s not as noisy as Madrid or Barcelona, this can’t be understated.
Alas, while it may be a famous tourist destination, relative to ‘grander’ cities like London, it is still known to be about 50% less pricey. Maybe it’s just a little more of a niche, and if that’s the case, we’d want to get out there right now before it gets too famous.
Valencia
Valencia lives off the prestige of being the sole (or one of the primary) alternatives in Spanish travel in the same vein as Seville. In more ways than one, it’s quite the city, from the weather to the incredible architecture and aura that’s felt across the heart of the streets.
They brought the world paella, and they gave us a lot of fun as well. Still, the level of tourism is not at the same level as many of their national competitors, which should probably be considered as a positive thing in the end.
Tallinn
Tallinn’s tiny and lively ex-pat culture is seen as a bit of an alternative. However, in alliance with that, you still have a town that looks like it was painted or dreamed up as a place of wonder and creativity.
It’ll be cheap if you want a fast meal out. It’ll be reasonable if you like a good cocktail or two. If you would like to live there, then yes, it would be cheaper. The correct way to go is to stay core, too, because, so to speak, the suburbs are not nearly as ‘intoxicating.’

Cologne
Happiness is at the root of about everything, and that’s what you’re going to get with Cologne (even though you can spell it a million and one different ways). It’s sort of a spot where you could go out with $50 for the weekend, come back with $30, and still have a lifetime.
When it comes to leaving their own city or town and seeing something new, this super friendly city gives ex-pats a great choice. There’s a lot of English speakers out there, too, but it’s not like you’re going to be all alone.
Lisbon
Portugal has an unjustified reputation for being a little pricey, and that’s mostly because we think it’s a bit more comfortable. Porto will set you back a little bit more in a financial context, while Lisbon just seems to have a bit more history.
In every store, pub, restaurant, or tourist attraction that they have, the city’s rustic beauty is replicated. Above all, there is a whole lot of land for lodging at fantastic prices. It’s tough not to fall in love with it, really.
Budapest
There seem to be many locals dining out most nights when you live in Budapest – or preparing luxury meals in their own homes. Most of the reasons for this are that people appear to have quite a bit of cash leftover when paying for their housing.
On the periphery, people prefer to pitch up, so it’s not like living more centrally will be that much of a concern, either. The estate agents you have to work with are also always pretty fantastic but don’t allow the city’s attractiveness to cloud your judgment on that, of course.
Prague
Prague looks like the kind of city that you would absolutely enjoy living in, for all of you would like to party and chill in equal measure.
It’s tough because it is, of course, and you definitely have to receive more than any other destinations for what you get there. However, it shouldn’t be much of a concern because everyone living there can get their head down and do the hard work required to succeed in the area. It’s an old school saying, but it fits pretty much all the time: work hard, play hard.
Liverpool
Liverpool streets have seen a thing or two. It’s still going to be regarded as very favorably as a historic working-class community. It is often considered that the north of England is much cheaper than the south, which definitely sounds real. The metropolitan centers aren’t all perfect, but a few places can make you feel just as comfortable in terms of the city itself.
Liverpool is full of life, and there aren’t going to be struggling families living here who, sadly, are actually a few people across England.
Wroclaw
Wroclaw’s industry and leisure combination are precise since it sounds a little more commercial than other cities across Poland. As an alternative for tourism, it just seems to be rising now, so again, hitting while the iron is high might be the best way forward here.
In some of the nearby cities surrounding Wroclaw, everyone tends to get a little bit tipsy, possibly true of the town itself. It’s worth noting, though, that a city’s stability and serenity can be perceived as a real gain.
