Hey guys,
I have a job in Soochow Univ, Suzhou with 3 years contract. salary - 2000k/year+12k house rent allowance/year. Is it enough to live good life in SIP area? I have to arrange housing myself. Any idea how much is monthly rent for 1 bedroom? I am fine with flat sharing, but not room. I strictly don't wanna stay with a landlord. Moreover, there should be no restriction for guests to visit.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Isn't this salary a bit exaggerated? With such a salary you can live like a millionaire!

Yeah, people told me 3-4k/month is enough for a very decent place. Personally I live at dorm because it's much more convenient for single person. If my family come I'll rent using these prices as reference.

Thanks a lot.
How much is per month rent for a dorm in SIP area? Is it shared room or single room? It will be great if you could share your experience. For example, 1. how much security deposited for a single room? 2. Any restriction for inviting guests? 3. Staying with land lord or independent housing?
Thanks again.
