Shouldn`t judge the country depending on Snabba Cash movie
Actually, I lived in Malmoe (Dalaplan area), for almost two years.
Yes, good explanation.So the Russian figures are probably not correct anyway
I`ve heard, I think, so probably... etc etc
Tell this to those who work like working bees in local groceries store. Not everyone in our country is oligarch, corrupted cop or lousy lawyer who can write 1000 $ in spring tax declaration but get tens more in envelopes. People cook, drive, wash, repair and believe me - they live on the numbers given to you by numbeo.
555 $ \ months in russian Auchan store comparing to 17 000 krons \ month in some Lidl or ICA (and that is after your "MOMS", am I right? Which are much higher than in Russia and which will go directly for maintain roads, facilities, safety, effectiveness not to officials pockets).
I`m not even talking about working conditions.
Or the possibility not to get salary on time.
I know that Stockholm is expensive. But prices in Malmoe were almost the same comparing to SPb.
Food - all the same apart from Danish meat or Cheese and few other exceptions.
Cinema - more expensive in Sweden.
Cloth was little bit cheaper in Sw.
Petrol - little bit more expensive in Sw. (its quality on russian damned gas stations is a different issue though)
Transportation - more expensive in Sw., but it is more comfortable, faster and more quiet than in Russia. I loved x2000 trains so much...
Apartments - maybe more expensive in Sw, but... there is no piss in the entrance, neighbours always say "hey", laudndry in the basement, no noise after 10 pm, and condition of the accomodation is better. My impression is based on different places where I lived.
Banking services - might be more expensive in Sweden but when I needed a paper in Lunds "fofspar" with managers signature and seal - they gave it to me for free, for instance. In russian banks they would rob you for 5-10 dollars...
So, not everything is only dependent on cost, my friend.
