Thanks. But I prefer to hear from the grassroots and not from a published sites.

This site publishes prices that are submitted by others. I have used it extensively in my many years of traveling and working around the world.

Hello,
If you are going toteach English in Chinaand you have a gross salary of 24K yuan, of course you can totally survive in Chengdu.
According to the 'Chengdu City & Salary 2020 Research Study,' many positions in kindergartens and other early childhood education pay about $16,000 ($2,291) a month on the low end of the scale.
For a freshman English teacher, language centers pay about $12,000 ($1,714) per month. The distribution curve, on the other hand, rapidly increases, and more workers (including language centers) pay between $13,688 and $2,855 a month.
Teachers with multiple certifications, who work for foreign programs or international schools, who can demonstrate that they can perform multiple tasks can earn up to $32,000 ($4,570) on the high end of the pay scale.

After tax, I guessed 18K is net take home pay. Accommodation is provided.

18K is enough to live in Chengdu?

Yes, it's alright.  It is certainly enough to survive.

survive? you can actully have a good life here.

if 18k is a monthly net income, you can live a pretty handsome life here.
