Cost of Living in Croatia - A Great European Option For Expats

Since joining the EU in 2013, Croatia has put the financial advantages of that status to good use, investing in highways, bridges, and tunnels through her mountains of white stone. Everywhere is easier to get to… and now there’s more to do when you arrive… more restaurants, more wineries, more art galleries…Every August, Europe hits the road. Everyone in this part of the world gets four weeks’ vacation each year, and, typically, they take it in one go, over the month of August. But, those in Northern, Central, and Eastern Europe get in their cars and head south… to the beach.Beach is one thing Croatia has in spades. So, this country’s long Adriatic coastline is magnificent. What’s more, Croatia enjoys more days of sunshine annually than any country in Continental Europe. So, when Europeans on the Continent set out on their beach holidays, Croatia is one of the destinations they target.

Traveling in Croatia you’ll see license plates from Germany, Switzerland, Slovenia, Slovakia, Hungary, Austria, Italy

The Italians have sunny beaches of their own, of course, but those over in Croatia can be more affordable.

Groceries In Croatia

Like in most European countries, grocery bills can take a big bite out of your budget. It all depends on your tastes, though. Are you ok with national orange juice? Can you live without Florida’s Natural?

Imported goods tend to be costly around Europe, especially those that come from America.

Sticking to hunting in markets and buying national products is the way to go for your budget. For example, a family of four reportedly spends around $1,032 and around $258 on average per person.

Cost Of Living In Croatia: Internet And Entertainment

Internet connection is a sweet deal in Croatia. A high-speed internet connection (500 Mb/s download) costs around $27 monthly in average. This is the premium cost. 

On the other hand, the typical monthly expense for mobile internet is between 13 and 27 euros.

Eating outside is considered reasonable. For instance, people tend to pay around $18 to $35 for a complete meal per head in a mid-level restaurant (alcohol included). Going to the movies costs 13 euros, not including beverages or sweets.

You can expect to pay around 2.5 to 4 euros for a beer at a typical bar, depending on what kind you choose.
