[@friends4lives]

Good effort!! It would be easier if the expenses are given based on take-home pay; which means most employers already cover medical insurance. Also excluding the shopping like clothing which won't be done regularly. To survive in a month, here are the mandatory expenses you have to spend for 2 people: Rent - $1600 to $1800 Utilities (Electricity, Water & Trash) - $200 Cell Phones - $90 (2 connections with international calling to India) Internet - $40 (MB Connection) to $60 (1 GB Connection) Car Payment (1 car) - $400 (A decent car, it can go lower if you buy a cheaper car) Car Insurance - $150 (This can come down eventually once you build a good driving record) Fuel (Gasoline) - $140 (if you limit your travel, NJ requires a lot of drive) Groceries - $300 to $350 (ALDI is a good option if you can deal with minimalism) Toiletries - $40 Amazon Membership + Costco membership - $12 + $5 (Monthly) Renters Insurance - $8 The above are necessities to the bare minimum. In addition to the above, Eating Out - $150 (3 to 4 times depending upon the restaurant) Miscellaneous Expenses (like haircuts, going out for a coffee, Oil Change for car, etc.) - $150 Entertainment (Like Movies, Recreation once a month) - $75 These expenses are for simple living, nothing lavish. If you have one kid like a toddler and require daycare, the expenses can add up very quickly. If you are a pet lover then add pet insurance and pet food supplies. If the wife and the husband want to drive separate cars then almost double the expenses of Car payment, insurance, and fuel :) NJ is one of the most expensive states (I think 9th rank) to live in after CA and NYC due to its close proximity to New York or the tri-state area.

[@atulparab007]

Nice video. One suggestion is that your voice should be clean clear and background music is not required orelse keep on low volume

[@PratishandBhavika]

Ok next time

[@sakshisaxena3965]

Please mention child day care cost as well

[@bharatvaidya10]

[@narutomishikassrivastava2393]

Hi .. great video guys .. wanted to check if we are shifting to new jersey from India .. what kind of clothes should we bring in from here .. especially for girls .. dresses(western) , sarees suits .. please suggest

[@PratishandBhavika]

Definitely get Indian ethnic wear because those are hard to find here and also western clothes if you have space. Initially shopping for western might feel super expensive so might want to get some along

[@antarikshverma8999]

Informative video ,but a suggestion, you should not use background music in these type of video

[@PratishandBhavika]

Thanks for the suggestion, will keep that in mind for our next video

Hi, great informative video indeed. I'm shifting to New Jersey from India by the end of February 2023. It would great help for me if you kindly provide some suggestions.... Should I reserve a room for staying prior to arrive, if so then how to do that. How much money should I carry for the first time as my salary is going to start atleast after 1 month (April most likely). Thnanks

[@PratishandBhavika]

If you can find an apartment before coming here then great otherwise stay in hotel for few days like we did. Also, you will need to pay rent for 2 months when you sign a lease and initially also you will need money for expenses. So I would recommend to get some money when you come here. 2 months of rent plus other expenses

[@debajyotikabiraj4241]

@@PratishandBhavika Thank you very much..

[@vaibhavrastogi4688]

Hi, you both doing great job. Thanks! Can you please help me on the place/area should look for 1500 to 1700 rent in New Jersey?

Hi guys, My office is in whipanny. What are affordable localities to live in.

[@satyanarayanaguda4848]

For a family of four, a minimum of $8500 is the bare minimum. If, savings and future including education is $10K/month. Therefore $145 K /year is a good salary meaning middle class comfortable (having freedom in travelling and entertainment) living. (145 net or gross?).

[@arshadhomarshariff8432]

Hi, I am moving to South Brunswick, New Jersey in March 2023 with my Wife and 3.5 year old kid. I was curious to know about the following 1. Income Taxes 2. Pre-School costs. It will help if you can shed some info on this.

Hi Pratish and Bhavika. Your vlogs are really helpful. For work purpose I need to move to Jersey city either by end of May or early June. Could you please provide insights regarding the rents there? Also what about public transport in Jersey city. I am a single person so probably need either a studio apartment or might share rooms with like minded individuals. Thanks in advance for your co-operation.

[@PratishandBhavika]

Thanks and glad that you liked our vlogs. I am not sure about apartments in that area

[@Shobyw]

Bhai grocery? I don’t think you eat much! Some vlogers are saying minimum 1000 and up to 2000

[@PratishandBhavika]

2000 for grocery not possible. You can eat at restaurant for 15-20$ per person. Even if you eat 2 meals outside everyday its going to cost 1800-2400$ for the month. Cooking at home is so much cheaper so 500$ per month for 2 should be good. Depending on what you eat it can 20-30% up or down
