The average salary isn't correct, because there is a big difference between salary for low qualified (less than 2000€ netto) and high skilled workers (more than 3000€ netto).
The other flats are all for people who are receiving government assistance or government regulated flat which requires a special application. This estimator is probably taking into account those apartments which are advertised but not available to all members of the public
I wanted to know the salary breakup for a 50,000 salary in Vienna, Austria. We are a married couple and one of us will not start working right away as my partner is in the process of getting a job offer. This is the offer I have received. Please let me know if this will be enough for both of us. We are fine living in a one bedroom apartment too.
Salary: approx. 1900 net each month, 2200 net on the 13th and 14th payment (as they are taxed less)
Rent: you should be fine around 1000
Utilities: 100
Internet: 30
Food: depends on you, but I'd say 200 per week including occasionally eating somethin out
Medical:free
Insurance: depends what insurance you are referring to, medical insurance is covered by the employer
Mobile: 20
TV-tax: 25 per month (if you own a TV)
INCOME
Salary: 40k per year equals 2.9k gross and 1.9knet since you're paid 14x a year?
SHARED COSTS
Rent for 1 bedroom appt.: 1000-1500 p/m
Utilities: 100-200 p/m
Internet: 15-35 p/m
Food: 750-1000 p/m
TOT: 950 - 1400 per person p/m
PERSONAL COSTS
Transport: 365 p/y
Medical: free or set aside 100 p/m?
Insurance: covered by company?
Mobile: 20 p/m
TOT: 150 p/m (avg)
So total costs p/p would be 1100 - 1550 p/m?
Am I missing any costs in this list?
Thanks!
