Cost of Living in Izmir

New hotspot for visiting foreign men visiting Izmir. Five colleges lots of young loose women almost giving it away to survive. For 200 lira a 20 year old all night but even that's negotiable. Or get a bulk rate meaning 1,000 lira 4 women for the night passed around between 10 foreign men for the night now that's a bargain

Beutiful city and wonderful and hospitable people. Love Turkey!

Replying to "Anonymous on Jun 02, 2022" I am sorry you felt that way and you left. I was born in Izmir and living ever since. My wife works in an international school and we have many international friends who have been living here for many years. Never heard from one that they won't exchange US dollar to Turkish Lira. If you were saying viceaversa and in huge amounts (like converting 1 million Turkish liras to USD) then you may be right. But to tell the truth I don't believe 3 Turkish banks and exchange offices won't convert your USD to TRY and tell you "you are taking advantage of Turkey since dollars are worth much more currently". I am sorry to say but this is AN ABSOLUTE LIE!!! I can bet on my very life that this won't happen.

You may not like a city/country but please don't lie about it.

If you're an American citizen living in Izmir I'd advise you to leave.Turkey government is starting to blame the U S for the devaluation of the Lira. Over the past 9 months Turkish citizens have been becoming very aggressive towards U S citizens. But reality being Turkish citizens have never liked U S citizens very much anyway. I've lived in Izmir for almost 14 years now and the difference attitude wise is a 360.But Erdogan,needs a scapegoat so U S citizens are his whipping post no doubt.I'm leaving Izmir in two weeks and moving to a different country. To those of you thinking about moving to Turkey be it for college or retirement I'd advise against it due to the circumstances I mentioned priorly.Also everything is atleast,85% higher than before. Banks have been reluctant to exchange dollars for lira.Three different banks wouldn't exchange my dollars to lira. They said I was taking advantage of Turkey since dollars are worth much more currently. Furthermore money exchange places have refused to exchange my dollars stating the same reasons.People throughout Turkey are becoming more desperate unfortunately, but for my own safety I must leave.

I'm giving 120 TRY for 100 mbps internet. Musti is lying.

Because of the earthquake that happened last year and ongoing economic crisis in Turkey you can't find a decent 1 bedroom apartment in city center under 2000 TL and 3 bedrooms are probably going to be around 3500-4000 TL.

Stop your lies I live in Izmir always have. The cost on numbeo at 104tl for 60 mbps unlimited is what it costs each month.Leave the site since you don't have anything honest to offer.

It's hard to guage up to date prices in Izmir especially when everything changes so quickly.But since corona prices have dropped drastically since fewer businesses are open.I don't believe Izmir tourism will be back for many years people afraid to visit anywhere and staying at home is the new norm.

l have been living in İzmir for 27 years...lzmir is cheaper than Istanbul and Ankara...Heating Costs are much lower than Ankara Cause Weather condition in lzmir is never cold ...Only 4 months (Mid-November to Mid-March ...Natural Gas prices are so High in Turkey ...lf your monthly salary is 8k Turkish liras (nearly 1k dollars),You can
