Numbeo just came out with their “Cost of Living Index by Country 2021.” Below you find the 30 cheapest “Cost of Living + Rent” countries in the world according to Numbeo. Let’s look at the first one on the list, “Georgia.”
Georgia is the 13th cheapest COL+Rent Country. If it costs 100 to live in New York City it costs 19.15 to live in Georgia according to Numbeo. The last number is where the country ranks on the 2020 Human Freedom Index. The last three aren’t ranked by HFI.
According to HFI Georgia is the 40th freest country of the 162 that HFI ranks. About as free as Panama, and a little freer than Costa Rica. Honestly, though if you are living a “PT” lifestyle how much difference would that make?
