I just want to give everyone an idea of the cost of living in Santiago.
$400 fully furnished apartment in the center of santiago with all bills included. My friend just rented an unfurnished apartment 1 block from the monumento for $215. I spend $25 per week at the supermarket. Dominican lunch (rice, beans, salad and meat) $2.70. I go out maybe 2 times a week. I have a hard time spending $15 on drinking each week and I like to drink. There are cheap bars near the monumento and the university. I travel by publico (cars with 7 people) price 15 pesos (less than $.50) When I first moved here, I love to spend money stupid, now I have adjusted my lifestyle and live like most dominicans.
