Turkmenistan's most expensive cities

Hello everyone,

What are the most expensive cities to live in Turkmenistan? What are the costs of things such as rent, utilities, weekly groceries, dining out, etc.?

What is the lifestyle like in these cities, for expats and locals?

What are the different neighbourhoods like? Are there more affordable areas?

Do you have any experience living in any of Turkmenistan's most expensive cities? What was it like?

Which cities in Turkmenistan would you recommend? Are there any that offer particularly good value for money when it comes to cost of living?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Dear Priscilla

I think there is not much difference in cost of living as compared to other developed countries. There are a few big cities like Ashgabad, Turkmenabad, Doshuguz, Mary and Avaza. In all these urban cities cost of living is approximately same as compared to rural areas.

The best city to live in is Ashgabad which is also the capital of the country. It has a population of one million.

You can see these cities on YouTube.

Thanks and regards
