Good video with good diverse viewpoints and answers on the information about their personal cost of living.👍💯 Maybe you already showed inside your living space before. If so can you share the KZbin video link? I (and maybe other subscribers) would like to see what size space you have and maybe can expect for approximately USD500 per month. I know there are many possible variables of the location and the size, as it is everywhere, but maybe you can show examples from your interviewees or your friends inside a few USD500 to USD1000 per month. Places in or around Tokyo and/or places around other large cities in Japan. TY Takashii🇯🇵❤🇺🇸❤✝🕊❤

that's what a "little" Japanese looks like though; what you're seeing is the "fluency illusion." Because you're not fluent in Japanese, you _really_ don't know what good Japanese sounds like. To be real critical: 1. her accent wasn't bad but it wasn't _good_, but better than a lot of learners 2. 自分を教えます is just flat out unnatural. 独学で勉強しています is a better way to express "I'm teaching myself/ I'm learning on my own." 3. そうのぉ、東京の友達は、英語が喋れる・あの上手英語です。で~もぉ、オサカァーに・・・あの彼らは、あの英語がちょっと弱いです。普通、日本語を・・その一緒にハナする ^ this is what broken Japanese looks like. With a little bit of studying and more practice she can turn her broken Japanese into something great, but that takes a lot of effort and time to get to that level.

Its interesting to see people talking about costs in japan recently because of the recent inflation elsewhere. In particular how cheap the JPY is compared to USD at the moment. For example JYP was roughly 75-80 to 1 USD the first time I visited in 2010 - 2011. Now it's almost double that at 138 JPY to 1 USD. My rent in NYC today is $2,200 USD for a 2 bedroom apartment in Brooklyn. Hearing $500/month rent in Tokyo had my jaw hit the floor...

Very interesting. Amazing to think that Tokyo is the most expensive city too. Over here in Miami Florida the rent is pretty much a guaranteed $1800/month, and eating out you would definitely be spending more than $7-$10 quite often, so I guess that's kind of similar. I would be interested in seeing how jobs pay in Japan too, since maybe the cost of living is low to match the pay.

Long-term foreign resident in rural Japan here. I was interested to watch this video to see how prices in Tokyo compare with where I live in Mie prefecture. Interestingly, restaurant prices don’t sound much different than where I live. Rent is a little cheaper here…but not by much, at least if you live in an apartment. On the other hand, you don’t mind living in an old house that’s far away from a train station, you can get a decent sized place for 200$ (US) or less per month. As for locally grown vegetables or (sometimes) fruit, it’s super cheap here. The last point is about clothes. One interviewee mentioned a lack of ‘fast fashion’ here…which is funny to me because everyone I know here buys most of their clothes at Uniqlo and GU (cheap and cheaper)… department stores aren’t really a thing anymore! Maybe Mie people are just cheap..? 😆

Fruits and vegetables are plentiful and not very expensive. I can get a pound of organic strawberries for $4 or a whole bag of organic apples for $5 or $6. You can actually get a lot of fruits and vegetables for free because so many people have gardens and have extra to share.

Fruit is shockingly expensive. A small pack of green grapes at Kombini costs about 400 Yen ($3.40 or so) and you are getting a small handful, like literally 15 grapes. Meanwhile a 2lb bag of grapes in USA is $5 that lasts a week or more. But overall eating in Tokyo feels so much cheaper, no tipping, base price is lower etc. and imo quality of the food is much better than USA, at a lower price

After a couple semesters of Japanese and visiting Japan I've come to the conclusion that learning as many kanji as possible is important for living in Japan. There is a lot of English on signs in Tokyo, but in rural Hokkaido not nearly as much, and kanji is an integral part of the written language. There is a lot you cannot read if you don't understand the kanji.

I spend more than Takashi on just rent here in NJ. I don't live close to NYC and my town doesn't have a direct line to NYC either. My rent for a one-bedroom apartment is $1750. It seems like going out to eat is way cheaper there too. A meal for two at a decent restaurant is easily $60+. How is the cost of living so low in Tokyo? I can't imagine how cheap it must be in more rural areas.

my brother lives in Fukuyama Japan a city in the Hiroshima prefecture and he pays about $500 US equivalent in yen per month for his apartment which has two rooms and probably bigger that any apartment in Tokyo for that price. I stayed at his apartment during a trip in 2018. The apartment would go for $1500 per month or more easy here in our home state of Hawaii. Average rent in Hawaii is $2000 per month. Eating out in Hawaii will generally cost more than Japan when going to cheaper options. Food in Japan is cheap or very expensive depending where or what you eat. When my brother and I ate good sushi it can easily be $30 to $40 bucks per person. The best sushi can be hundred dollars per person. We also ate $5 dollar Beef Bowls which are so good. Note my USD estimates of the yen I spent was based of prices before pandemic and fall of Japanese yen value vs US dollar.

I live in Orlando, FL in the US and my rent alone is $2200 a month - and that's not the most expensive rent! I would like to move to a better neighborhood in Orlando, but I would have to scale down from a 2 bedroom apartment to a 1 bedroom so that I could try to pay less than $2500 a month. Tokyo is cheap compared to the US. But it sounds like food (at least fruit and vegetables) costs less in the US. And living in Florida you basically have to have a car, so there's the monthly car payment, the cost of gas and insurance, and maintenance costs. It is not cheap to live in the US at all.

It's too damn expensive, and Orlando it's not even comparable to a city like Tokyo, almost in every aspect Tokyo is more developed, only fruits are more expensive in Tokyo, but eating out and transportation I think is reasonable for the quality, also wages are decent, overall I think living in Tokyo is really worth it.

I am also in Orlando! Agreed that unfortunately this city is simply getting more expensive each year. Traffic is getting worse, as well as crime. Inflation obviously hit food and gas big time. Pretty crazy to see how housing isn't getting easier. And this is Orlando! A mid-sized city.

In Japan, we have a culture of bringing foods as the gift, and even if you don't buy expensive fruits, snacks, meat or fish for yourself, you probably customary buy that expensive gift foods, and give to your friends, relatives, other family members, colleagues at your workplaces or clients. This custom makes gift foods pretty much expensive, which have very good apperances to apeal your precious persons.

I've been following japanese prices since 15+years, and it's always been relatively cheaper than most western countries. Apart from absurd vegetables/fruit prices, everything else is pretty cheap, especially accomodation, eating out. Pubblic transport is also cheap, considering the quality you get. For example, in US on average the cost of living is outrageously high, and the life quality is incredibly low compared to Japan. I would say the expenses in Japan are somewhat similar to my home country, which is Italy.
