Living costs in Chiang Mai your opinions please

[mluberti]

Hello,

I am planning to move to Chiang Mai later this year, my first time in Asia. I am diligently researching.

An apartment in the 8-9000 baht range would work for me. I rarely drink and I'm not a bar guy. I would eat mainly Thai food, not interested in pizza or cornflakes, or peanut butter.Don't need health insurance, and would be on a retirement visa. I can live simply if needed.

Does a monthly total budget of 28000 baht seem reasonable and doable?

Thank you in advance for all and any input submitted.

>>Does a monthly total budget of 28000 baht seem reasonable and doable?<<..yes ,but you can rent a house in the suburbs for B5000 a month .( my friend from Sweden had such a place 10 km out from the center .
