Planning to move to Istanbul

Hi Friends. I am planning to move to Istanbul with Family (wife)
. How is 6000 USD monthly? How much will I b able to save if I maintain moderate living standards. I hope to save around 3500 every month. My office would be in Yenibosna.

Don' t worry. 2500 $ is enough to live in İstanbul Yenibosna. that means you purchase 4250 TL for per month. 1250 TL goes to a good home, then 3000 is enough to enjoy.

Hi dubai2istanbul,

Welcome to Expat.com! :)

I have introduced your discussion as a new thread on the Istanbul forum for better visibility.

Thanks for replying to my queries. How is Yenibosna area in terms of super market availability and connection to local transport. Is it a safe area for expats or if u can suggest nearby good residential areas.

Hi dubai2istanbul,

what kind of business will you make?

I dont suggest Yenibosta to live in. Maybe Bahçelievler, BAkırköy is more expensive but better.

dont worry 6K very good income for istanbul ,  2k will be enough for 4 people family as monthly expenses
