Thailand Cost of Living - 2024

In This video, travel expert, Jim Kellett talks with Chris from the KZbin channel, Retired Working For You. Chris is an expert in real estate, travel, and retirement in Thailand. They talk about the cost of living in Bangkok and around Thailand. Jim Kellett gives a tour and shows some specific examples of the cost of accommodations, transportation, and food.
Jim also gives examples of island living in Thailand. Living in a popular tourist destination like Phuket or Koh Samui will offer many amenities… but will fall in the higher cost-of-living range, while living on one of the less popular islands will offer a simpler lifestyle at a lower cost. And there are over 1,400 islands to choose from.
Living on a Thai island offers a laid-back lifestyle with stunning natural beauty, water activities, and a vibrant local culture. You can enjoy a sense of community, diverse cuisine, and, depending on the island, a choice between lively nightlife or a quiet laid-back atmosphere.
Living in Chiang Mai, Thailand, offers a unique blend of cultural richness, and a relaxed pace of life. Surrounded by mountains, the city provides a more temperate climate, and residents can enjoy a variety of traditional festivals, delicious local cuisine, and numerous outdoor activities. The cost of living is generally lower than in major cities, contributing to the city's appeal to digital nomads and retirees. Even in the popular part of town, you can find a good meal for $4 dollars or a massage for $7 dollars.
In Chiang Mai, many expats report being able to live comfortably for $1,200 per month, and nomads renting month-to-month, have reported living comfortably for $1,100 per month.

A warning about renting ANY place in Bangkok ... electricity is very expensive. VERY. Thailand is very hot and Bangkok doesn't 'cool off' in the evening because of all the concrete that releases heat when the sun goes down. If you're a single male you should NOT be looking for a place over 42sqm because you must AIR-CONDITION it all the time when you are home. I have been in very large apartments and the Thai or Western people who live in these impressively large apartments sit in puddles of sweat because they refuse to run their air-conditioners (electricity = $$$$$). Find a modest place to live, one that is easy to air-condition - you will thank me later.

[@brianpark-siart2216]

What's expensive to you? Here in Hawaii my wife and I pay on average $250 per month for electricity and we don't even use an AC in our house at all. We also pay for gas for our stove and our hot water heater and that is about $150 per month as well. So, I'm guessing in Thailand its at least that much if you're talking expensive? BTW my wife and I are retiring to Thailand in a few years, have a conservative budget of $5K per month to live on, so should we be worried about the cost of living in Thailand?

[@guymandudely324]

@@brianpark-siart2216 Hawaii is America and is expensive. Thailand is SE Asia and will be less expensive for you and your wife provided you don't waste your money BUYING a condo there. My point is that Westerners who think that 'bigger is better' should know that bigger is NOT better when finding an apartment/condo to live in because electricity is very expensive in Thailand (everywhere). Your $5K/month budget should enable you to find a comfortable 15-20K baht/month place to live in Bangkok if that is your destination. You will have a great choice of condos because foolish Westerners buy condos for 'investment,' then they can't find Thais who can afford the rent. You can negotiate the rent in Thailand especially if you are willing to sign a 1-year lease.

[@Therealmikeparkerjnr]

​@brianpark-siart2216 absolutely not you are going to be fine. The guy above has just made an out there statement. Bangkok is the centre but you can easily live there tlwith 5000 a month budget and the electricity isn't nearly as much as 250 it more like 30 to 50 and if that in some areas.

[@alleytruter9618]

In Chiang Mai the electricity was sometimes more than the rent if you use the aircon

[@Yellowfever-gz7bm]

My budget last month in the south of Thailand was $400. $70 for electricity to run the AC 20 hours a day, No rent, $12 for internet, 60 cents for my flip phone, $2 for water, $80 fuel for car. $10 for car insurance. That's $175 without food. I eat out a lot and buy some foods for relatives. If I didn't eat restaurant food, it would be easy for me to live on $300 a month. I live on a paved road in rural Mai Seab/ Koh Khan. 1 mile to 7-11 and the freeway. 5 miles to KFC or hospital. 20 miles to Phattalung. My house is paid for.

Nightlife/Drinking is the most expensive thing of daily life in Thailand.... fortunately I have outgrown my heavy party days now and am happy just going out for a couple of beers once a week, as I am doing here in Vietnam... It's all about the food for me there so I can imagine I will be quite happy on $1000-1200 a month!

[@Re3iRtH]

Biggest issue is there's no way to stay there a long term if you're under 50 yo. Visa options are very limited and they are cracking down on those bogus educational and Muay Thai Visas. What i like about Thailand is the easy accessibility to healthy food and saunas in the buildings which the Philippines doesn't have.

Exactly! This video doesn’t even mention the Visa to live there long term. I can afford the appropriate $2k a month, but it’s the long term Visa that’s the issue, since I’m under 50.

[@jeffryan7262]

⁠@@alinet9937that’s not a realistic way to live in Thailand long term. Eventually an immigration officer will ask why you don’t have a proper long term Visa, which is hard for someone under 50.

[@amandasampson9424]

There is the elite visa now known as the privileged. If you can afford it, it's really the only way anyone under 50 can live freely in Thailand. Unfortunately, Sept 23' is when it literally doubled in price but it's worth it without the hassle of immigration. I've been saving for 8 years and was almost ready for the move but now it's looking more like 2026 because of the Visa expense.. it's worth it, even if only for 5 years until I can work out something more permanent..

[@JohnDoe-iv7yu]

The BNK BKK doctor that did my MRI for a PSA was thai. He spoke Thai, English (Perfectly!) and Mandarin. He spent 15 to 20 minutes explaining everything. The results were delivered via encrypted email (Which I had approved ahead of time so as to avoid a trip to the hospital again as I live in Pattaya) and guess what? The doctor CALLED me to go over the results. He was mellow, confident, happy the results were negative. In America there would be no call, no email, have to get approval from your general doctor before seeing a specialist etc. etc. WHAT SERVICE BKK Hospitals have!

Thailand is not the place to retire anymore. Great to visit or live and work there, but not for retirees. Starting 1 Jan 2024 Thailand now taxes the income of retired Expats (including Pensions), if you live in Thailand 180 days or more in a year, while all the other countries in SEAsia do not. Hopefully Thailand will change their mind, but as it is now, starting on Jan 2025 Expats have been told to pay income taxes on the money they brought to Thailand from 1 Jan 2024 onwards. Thailand also wants to implement worldwide taxation, so even if you dont remit the money to Thailand they want to tax it . No matter how good their Visas are or the country is - for retired Expats Thailand is not the best option (we are leaving).

Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?

Hello dear sir, I am watching your videos. I have been to Thailand 4 times. But I didn't like Bangkok and other big cities in Thailand. Bangkok, in particular, is not a place to live.
