Cost of Living Calculator
Pick where you're moving from and the Australian city you're considering, and see how rent, groceries and transport actually compare, plus how far each city's own average take-home pay stretches to cover them.
| Monthly cost | Auckland | Brisbane |
|---|---|---|
| Rent, 1-bed city centre | NZD 2,263 | $2,815 |
| Rent, 1-bed outside centre | NZD 2,134 | $1,986 |
| Groceries | Not yet available | Not yet available |
| Public transport | NZD 217 | $22 |
| Utilities | NZD 305 | $313 |
| Average take-home pay | Not yet available | Not yet available |
Figures are shown in each city's own local currency, not converted, since an exchange rate goes stale immediately. Use the "how far your salary goes" percentage above to compare cost of living directly.
