Cost of Living in Florianopolis (2023)

[@andje_izidor_music]

You guys are doing a great job with this channel!! Keep it up!!!

[@fahlingfamily]

Thanks, I really appreciate that. We will keep on making them

[@Thepatricknorman]

Very helpful, thanks!

[@thalestheodoro2063]

Boa noite. Eu moro no Nordeste do Brasil (na porta de entrada para o Norte), mas já morei muitos anos no Sudeste do Brasil. Comparando o custo de vida das duas regiões posso dizer, com segurança, que morar no Sudeste é bem mais barato, e acredito que na região Sul seja assim também. O problema é que o Norte do Brasil importa quase tudo do Sudeste e Sul do país e são 3.000 Km ou mais até aqui.

[@derekOnn_02]

Thank you for the information!! So good!

[@fahlingfamily]

Happy to help!

Hey guys, my wife (and kids) have very sensitive skin. We use cloth diapers and washable inserts. They are cheaper and much much better for the baby’s skin.

[@Saltyvibezworldwide]

We are planning to move to Floripa and have our second baby! Would be awesome to meet you guys and maybe go for a surf and bbq yewww. Awesome video. You guys seems super chill. Blessings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

[@fahlingfamily]

I would love to but we actually are back in the US now. We hope to come back to Floripa in the future. It was a great place to have our daughter and we really enjoyed it. If you have any questions about that or Floripa in general feel free to reach out. I am happy to help.

[@Mitchell-c9d]

Do they speak a little bit of English there.

[@fahlingfamily]

In certain areas yes. Where we lived in Ingleses not so much@@Mitchell-c9d

[@quantomrizzics]

Thanks for the video. You're production has really went up a notch too. oba

[@fahlingfamily]

Thanks! I'm getting some outside help from my sister-in-law on that haha

[@kyrieeleison7808]

Hi Tucker family, you are watched in Croatia!! I plan to go late January -Mid February to Floripa ( past year i did same amount in SP/RJ). Few questions How much is gym and Muayi Thai monthly fee if you know by any chance? You got very good deal for apartment (compared what i see now trough airbnb) what search engine have you used? Is tap water safe to drink? Whoukd you say that area around Lagona do Conceciao is best if you want mix of nature, night lufe and beaches? I know some basics of Portuguese, but how good will English serve me there? Thank you in advance

[@michaelmyers54]

Tucker are you going. To post ? Like your content

[@fahlingfamily]

Yes. I haven't been able to in a while because we moved and I have been pretty busy but I have three videos I am currently working on and will post in a few weeks. Thank you for your support! I am sorry to be away for so long

[@FrancielFontana-mz2ih]

helloo, im from a city in west of Santa Catarina called São miguel, im thinking about moving to floripa in the next year, i've been seeing that there are a lot of people from abroad in Floripa, do you think that i can get a decebt job there, knowing that i can speak english and portuguese? Btw thanks for the video

[@adamdebarros8675]

Hey guys. Thx for the video... We (My wife, daughter and I) are moving to Inglasis in a month. We have been in Rio and we Uber everywhere and was significantly cheaper (and less stressful) than owning a car. We were thinking of having to buy a car but how are the Ubers there? Does it take long to get? Are you able to get Ubers ok at the North of the island? I was thinking they my be a little sparce? Many thx!

[@fahlingfamily]

It can take a little longer to find an uber but we never had a problem getting one, even when my wife went into labor at 4 AM. We bought a car because it was miserable taking uber's with a baby but if our daughter had been a little older (4+) Uber would be the way to go. It is so cheap and convenient on the island.

[@MRFDR55]

Very Informative, thought Floripa was much more expensive. Thanks!😊

[@fahlingfamily]

I'm glad it helped. I try to make videos about things that I wish I had known before moving here

[@mariajosegiani8177]

Try to see The prices in Fort Atacadista.

[@fahlingfamily]

It has the best prices but I don't go in there anymore because it is a mad house and takes forever. There is a Fruit and Veggie place called Oli Oli that I will film soon

[@tonyrichengod9280]

Great video. How about safety? Is it safe there?

[@lucasmoreira7680]

Yes! Santa Catarina is probably the safest state in Brazil. Florianópolis is safer than many cities in the US.

[@Kristoferwitha_k]

Reia dropped. Its like 4.72 now so dollar is weaker now

[@くんヴィッツ]

Muito explicado, parabéns 🎉

[@fahlingfamily]

Muito obriagado!

[@AdorableUrban]

Man is the weather really unstable? I live in North and weather is so awesome…South seems so beautiful specially mountains like Rancho Queimado…but question is a person that loves good weather…is it still nice for like 4-6 months a year?

[@fahlingfamily]

I thought Florianopolis had the best weather of anywhere I had lived excluding SD. It is good 12 months of the year barring a few cyclones. It only gets really hot (above 90) a handful of days and below 60 a handful of days. There are some heavy rains here and there but it was super enjoyable the year and a half we were there

[@woldoseroldofoldo]

Hey guys! Is it possible to life from 8000 to 10.000 reiais per month comfortably? I mean, 50 sm rental flat, cheap car, going to a restaurant 2 x a month. We are planning to move to Floripa in 2 years and arecsaving as hell for it :) Maybe see you there!!

[@woldoseroldofoldo]

I forgot to mention that we are a couple

[@Golocalbarcelonatours]

hey thanks for your helfpul videos! I am moving ot Florionopolis in Januray, just for 1 month, do you recommend me to look for accomodation before arriving or once I arrive?

[@fahlingfamily]

That's great to hear! I am glad the videos are helping.. Yes, absolutely. It is going to be right in the middle of the busy season and it is going to be very difficult to find a rental during that time. Definitely start looking immediately

[@JohnTyler2023]

Hi guys i now live in Floripa and I am looking to live in praia dos englieses. Any suggestions for a home and who to go through. I currently live in barra da lagoa

[@fahlingfamily]

We liked our location in ingleses norte (outside of the busy season). It was quiet, close to the beach and pretty affordable. It depends on what you are looking for but most places in ingleses I would not want to live because of how congested it gets.

[@luckieramos9001]

How come you just didn’t round everything up and give the total monthly expenses in usd? At the end of the video?

[@fahlingfamily]

Use a calculator

[@warrenchoi7978]

Olá Tucker! I've been following your videos for over a year now and I really like this informative video about cost! Would you happen to have an email address or other contact for questions?

[@fahlingfamily]

Yeah of course! My whatsapp is (one)-4-two-five-8-three-7-2-nine-1-two

[@RC94332]

So how much in total? I didn’t do the math lol

[@fahlingfamily]

We spend anywhere from 8-12k Reais per month but I think on average we spend around 9k/month.

[@DiegoCore]

Então total foi quanto mensalmente ?

[@fahlingfamily]

Uns 8000 reais mais ou menos

[@johncaddo8992]

You never gave the total of your monthly expenses???

[@fahlingfamily]

Around 8000 reais

[@fabianasantucci1554]

So your rent is only about $500 dollars?

[@fahlingfamily]

Yes, and with utilities and all it comes to about $650. I have to say that even though it is cheap renting here is much more stressful as you (the tenant) are responsible for a lot/ almost everything in your rental. Even if the law says differently.

[@fabianasantucci1554]

@@fahlingfamily I understand that very well. Even though I have lived in California for most of my life. I was born in your neighboring country of Uruguay and visit often. So I understand, it's frustrating to us who aren't used to that way of living. We are now looking into Floripa to live. Thank you for your response. It helped a lot.

[@hodche60]

​@@fahlingfamilythank you for all your help can you please give me the name of the rent agency to contact them thanks 🙏

[@gunslingerjhagadee]

Why dont you go fishin off the praia at Inglese.........some gande fish thar.

[@Kristoferwitha_k]

Lol you didnt do a total or said what it is in dollars

[@fahlingfamily]

It changes constantly so that wouldn't be relevant. And the total is between 8-11k Reais per month
