What is the average cost of housing in Kuwait?
If you are thinking about moving to Kuwait, cost of living in probably a key consideration. Expats commented about the cost of housing...
"MUCH lower. About $500 or so a month for a good two bedroom apartment. Again, most companies provide housing as part of the contract. It's rare to find an American paying for their housing," said another expat in Kuwait City, Kuwait.
"The cost of housing in Kuwait varies depending on the location and type of property. Generally, the cost of renting an apartment in Kuwait is quite high, with prices ranging from around $1,000 to $2,500 per month. Buying a property in Kuwait is also expensive, with prices ranging from around $200,000 to over $1 million," wrote a member who made the move to Kuwait.
