What’s the Cost of Living in Malaga?

Well, the cost of living in Malaga is not as cheap as it used to be, but it’s still relatively affordable. Settling in Malaga will still give you real value for your money especially now that pound is performing greatly against the euro. You may say that the internet and mobile phone contracts are on the high side than what it is in the UK, but other bills such as electricity, rubbish collection, public transport fares, local council taxes and food are cheaper. It’s also less expensive to eat out with a 3-course lunchtime menu that goes for as low as €8. Some firms in Andalusia still keep the tradition of serving a little dish of tapas with your lunch drinks.
