[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I spend half my time in London and half in DC. There is no question that the standard of living is much higher here. That said, some things are significantly cheaper in London. Proximity alone means you can have amazing minibreaks and holidays in Europe for much less. Groceries are significantly cheaper. You can get a decent bottle of wine for much less. [b]Eating out is generally much better value, and much higher quality.[/b] Healthcare is usually free. Broadband is much cheaper. If you are poor, many things, including housing, are subsidized. Other things - notably heat and energy-are more expensive. For people who didn’t manage to get on the property ladder decades ago, housing is very expensive compared to wages.

In financial terms, it can be tough compared to here unless you’re earning big $$ in the city or in tech. But you do get to live in the greatest city in the world.[/quote]

What???!!!! I have eaten a few good meals in London, but no, it isn't cheaper or better quality.[/quote]
