Popular Post champers Posted August 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2018 Many, many apartments for under 4000 Baht per month. Thais will share. 3 in the bed, 3 on the floor. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digbeth Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 you need to broaden your horizons a bit, there are rooms for 3-4000 Baht a month, might not be the standard in what we consider to be 'apartment' or livable. Some cheap charlies westerners do live in many of these room rental place these rooms are not advertised at the real estate agent some business provide dormitories for their staff too 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newnative Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 It's just like anywhere else in the World. You rent what you can afford. If you are a low income Thai, you rent something very cheap and maybe have a roommate sharing expenses. One of our tenants was a Thai pharmacist. She could afford to rent our Lumpini condo rental at 10,000 Baht a month. Great tenant by the way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balo Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I know teachers in Bangkok paying 2500 baht for a room with air con . A clean room , and even a small balcony outside to do cooking . So this is the standard that most Thais are used to , with a salary of 10k , let's say 2 Thais live together and they can afford both the rent and smart phones and whatever they eat . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
