Everyday Costs in in United States

How much does it really cost to live, work, or travel in ? Here's what to expect for daily expenses and expat living.

Currency Guide: United States (ISO Code: US)

For travelers planning a 1-week mid-range stay in the United States, a budget of around $1,400 to $2,000 is advisable. This estimate includes a mix of accommodation, meals, transportation, and entertainment. Here's a brief overview of typical daily expenses in local currency (USD):

  • 🍔 Meal at a local restaurant: $15-25
  • ☕ Coffee: $3-5
  • 🚌 Public transport fare: $2-3
  • 📱 Prepaid SIM card: $40-60
  • 🏨 Budget hotel or Airbnb: $100-150 per night

In general, the U.S. can be considered an average to slightly expensive destination depending on the region. For example, major cities like New York and San Francisco tend to be pricier than rural areas. When comparing costs of visiting the U.S. to a country like Canada or the UK, Canada is often cheaper, especially regarding accommodation and dining options. The U.K. generally aligns closely with the U.S. in terms of major city expenses, with London being particularly expensive due to high costs of living, thus making a trip to the U.S. comparable.

Expat Living in the United States

For expats, monthly living costs generally range from $2,500 to $4,000 depending on lifestyle and location. This typically includes rent (which can be a significant part of the budget), groceries, utilities, and transportation. Useful tips for banking in the U.S. include opening a local bank account to avoid excessive ATM fees and ensuring your debit/credit cards are accepted widely. Payment methods can vary greatly, with contactless payments and mobile wallets gaining popularity.

When it comes to exchanging money, options like Wise or OFX are typically better than converting cash at local banks or airports, which may have unfavorable rates. Additionally, for regular receiving and sending of funds internationally, using online transfer services can save you significant amounts in fees and provide real-time currency conversion rates, making your financial transactions smoother and more cost-effective.
