Cost of Living in Brazil

I have been offered a job in Sao Paulo paid 19,000 $R per month and I would like to have your views on whether this is a good salary to live in Sao Paulo. I will be travelling with my family (husband and 2 children) and I would like to live in a safe and nice area of Sao Paulo but I am not really sure about prices. I would also like to have an idea of costs of private schools to buy a car and to live a day to day life. Can you help? Thanks, Renata Ramalhosa

Hello Ramalhosa,

Welcome to 大咖福利影院 :)

I suggest you to have a look at this thread as you may find some useful information : /forum/viewtopic.php?id=137716

Thank you

R$19.000 per month is a very good salary and you should do just fine on that. You'll be able to rent a very nice apartment in an upscale part of the City of S茫o Paulo without any problem. Private schools are quite expensive, but you should have no problems on the budget you have.

For Cost of Living in S茫o Paulo check and just type S茫o Paulo Brazil into the search fields.
Thank you so much for your post. Do you know good private schools in S茫o Paulo that I can begin looking? Also my husband is na architect/ urban planner - do you know whether he is able to practise in Brazil? I read one of your blogs and you suggest people not to buy a car.. but if you have a family of 4 would this advise still apply? Any suggestions on where I should look for the criteria to get a working Visa? If I get a Visa would it be easier for my family to get Visas as well? Many thanks for all your help. Best wishes, Renata
Thank you, Priscilla! Any blogs on Visas to work in Brazil?聽 Renata
There are so many good private schools in S茫o Paulo they'll be too numerous to list. You're best off just doing a Google search of Escolas particulares em S茫o Paulo and pick something fairly close to where you'll be living.
With 30 000 per month NET , you will feel better . How much you make now and where do you live now ?
GOOD SCHOOL = MINIMUM 4 X 1.000 R$ = 4.000 R$ / MONTH聽 + BOOKS + TRANSPORT + ECT...
TO RENT聽 APARTMENT 3 ROOMS, GOOD LOCALISATION聽 聽= MINIMUM 6.000 R$ / MONTH + CHARGES
INSURANCES, FOR 6 = MINIMUM 1.500 R$ / MONTH聽 聽
