You will need to do some research to answer this question, but it will all pay off! It would be best to look into the cost of groceries, gas, bus tickets, etc. There’s no need to compare every little daily expense, but you definitely need to cover food, transportation, and utilities! You do not want to be awed by the salary your new employer is offering you only to discover most of it will be spent just to cover the bills! Doing this will also provide you insight into the local wages, so you will be able to negotiate a fair salary with your future employer.
