- What can $350 a month get you in China? What kind of apartment can you rent for that price? Let's take a tour of my mom's Chinese apartment and find out.
Compared to price and cost if living in Shanghai or Beijing, ofcourse this is the perfect city and price 😉🤩
How does it compare to your rent currently?

If I moved to China, I would get an apartment like your mom's. It looks very good.
Right now it's very cold in other cities across China, while Kunming enjoys a spring-like climate throughout the year. That's why I'd say you and your mom are very lucky.
kunming is a good good choice.
In NY, an apartment like that goes for $4000/month if you can get one. Mostly, the apartments are old, run down 400 sq/ft apartments.
In Hong Kong even more
This one cost her mother about $90 US dollar per month, just so you know it!
Hope the haters now see the benefit of ghost towns, lol. Simple logic, where there's scarcity produce more, not jack up the prices.
NY deserved $3500
@@maniaouri2146 It depends on the locations, not everywhere costs you $4000 per month for a 400 sqft apartment in Hong Kong.
That was a lovely apartment tour. I'm amazed at how cheap the rent is. I'm paying £476 per month (4410RMB) for a one-bedroom apartment in the UK. That does not include local council tax. The only criticism I can make is the TV is too small. I would have an 82-inch TV.
你要一台100吋的電視機都只不過是多四五百磅左右就可以🎉🎉🎉
If you can afford a monthly rental of £476, then you should easily get a 100" tv.
@@ongsengkee2530 I already have an 82-inch TV. Lizzy's mum has got a smaller TV which is too small for me.
An 80-inch TV in China costs about 400 pounds
@@MightySteve001 she can order a 85 inch xiaomi tv on Taobao. its like 400 euros. a cheap version.
Rmb2600，that is around HK$3000. By this amount, one can only rent a carpark here in Hong Kong, and of course, everything depends on location.
An apartment like this in Toronto will cost at least CAD 3,500 a month or approximately 17,500 RMB.
Wow! Spacious and nice! Looking forward to seeing your family union in China!
Miss Lizzy, Your Mom's dwelling is a FAMILY 👪 Apartment for at least 5 persons, not for one individual.
😊
The rent is insanely cheap, this is amazing!
literally it‘s expensive in china for a 2-grade city! 150+ dollars is common for 100square meters apartment！
What part of china is this because I am planning a holiday to china this year and I don’t know where to go
@JonathanOkane City of Kunming in the province of Yunnan (it's really the centre south of China).
you can even find 200 usd per month for a three-bedrooms house in some small city in china.
Very nice apartment.
cannot wait to see your brother come to China. family reunion...
Now I'm learning chinese for move in china😂❤️
Very relaxing and very pleasant. Enjoy your life in China.
Very good apartment
That's a great apartment for an excellent price! ❤😊😊❤
Wow! The apartment looks spacious and comfortable with beautiful community environment. I am glad that your brother is going to be with you for the holiday season. Wish you all a happy holiday!
Look like Lizzy's brother will come to China for the Christmas day with sister and mom.
Wow! The rent for your mum’s spacious apartment in a lovely area is only ¥2,600 (£280) a month?!! That’s amazing value! It seems she has made herself a home there too!!
But then accommodation in China is really affordable. I was in Chongqing a week ago. My hotel is in the middle of the tourist hub and the cost for 4 nights was cheaper than my stay for 1 night at a Hong Kong airport hotel!!
Thanks Lizzy for your videos. I’m getting to know my hometown again through you videos. It has changed so much since I left.
Thanks Lizzie for the tour of mum’s apartment. Nice views with 3 cute cats to keep her company when u r not around. How cool. Looking forward to your bro coming to visit u. Would love to see all 3 of u having a Christmas family meal together.
Best of luck to you and mom hope and pray that one day i will come there
Let's all move to China!!!😂😂😂
Rather make the whole earth china 😂
Let China rule the world! It will be so nice.
Congratulations lizzy, nice apartment building and lovely family reunion, excited to see what’s next for your brother’s visit next few weeks.🎉
so jealous such a beautiful boutique place your mother has!
Hi Lizzy, could you do a general breakdown in terms of cost of living in China.
like utilities, internet, phone data, grocery, transportation etc.
Thank you!!
中国的每个城市成本都不同。一般来说，北京、上海和深圳是生活成本最高的三座城市，主要是房租比较高。同一座城市不同地段的租金差别也是很大的。Lizzy所在的昆明生活成本相对不高。
一般中国人每个月的生活成本:电话费用80-200元（含免费有线网络）、电费0.5-2元/kw、水费1-2元/t、公交车2元/次（地铁2-8元之间，视距离远近有不同价格）、出租车2-3元/km。
中国农产品物价非常便宜，种类众多。因为地域广大（从热带到寒带，从平原到高原到沙漠），各地农产品价格都不同，一般蔬菜是2-5元/斤（1斤=0.5kg=500g），猪肉大约12元/斤，牛肉大约18元/斤，羊肉大约20元/斤。
工业产品价格非常低廉，除了国际性大品牌外，普通产品至少比西方便宜一半，便宜几倍的也很常见。
@zhidongchen8759 thank you for the much needed details, I really appreciate it. It seems the meat is on the pricy side but the overall cost of living is very sustainable :) One day I would love to check out life in China. Thank you again Mr Chen👍
@YoonJintae98 还有一件事不得不提，就是中国的医疗费用对于西方人来说出奇地低廉。即便没有中国的医疗保险，价格也低廉到令西方人难以置信，而且不需要排队。我知道有个居住在加拿大的中国人回国换牙，加上机票钱都都比在加拿大便宜。所以想检查身体的话，可以去找一家大型中国医院，大概一个上午或下午就可以搞定全身体检并得到结果。基于中国的人口数量，中国医生在常见病的诊治检查方面是世界一流的。
@zhidongchen8759 thank you! Your insight is very valuable and would be good to keep all that in mind. And to add salt to the wound we are still having a bit of strike with our healthcare in Korea😭stay warm and happy new year Mr Chen
@@YoonJintae98 I think he's mentioning in Yuan not USD. The cost of living in Kunming is very cheap but the quality of life is really good. I don't think you need to worry about it.
Beautiful apartment 🤩🤩🤩. Hope you 2 have a wonderful life in China
Really nice apartment ❤
Beautiful place, where you mom can enjoy easily some physical exercise every day.
nice apartment .
Wow that's a beautiful community it's got a luxurious high end vibe. It's heavenly! Love this community. Congrats! ❤🎉🎉
Lovely community. 😘😍🥰
looking good
Great & comfortable appartment! Have a nice & warm family re-union during Christmas!
I really enjoyed watching this video, how nice the apartment is, so affordable and nice
Beautiful apartment and this would cost 4 or 5 times the price in the UK. Life is so much better in China.
that is a huge apartment
Great!
Kunming is a nice place to live and work. Good for you guys.
Very nice apartment, nice peaceful surrounding, affordable price, I can only get one of this condition to live in the west.
Most beautiful city in entire china!😊😊😊😊😊😊
Nice apartment.
Số cool, and it's relatively cheaper thân thế West
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for the gift of life and blessings to me and my family. I remember when I was homeless and faced many challenges in life, until I started earning $120,000 biweekly. All thanks to Miss Kiana Daniel. Imagine investing and receiving $120,000 in a few weeks... ❤️❤️
I believe when God blessess it exceeds beyond my expectation. I know my Father in heaven is a generous father who provides the needs of his children🥰
I just want to use this opportunity to say a very big thank's to Kiana Danial and her Strategy, she changed my life.
After enduring many struggles, I am now filled with gratitude for owning a new home. My family is happy, and everything is finally falling into place.
Every one of my prayer requests is about to manifest in the Name of Jesus I receive and connect with this message in Jesus' mighty Name Amen🔥🙏
As a beginner what do I need to do? How can I invest, on which platform? If you know any please share.
I look forward to your brother visiting and I have a feeling that he will love it there and the next step will be for him to move there as well.
nice sunlight☀️nice surroundings it looks quite and peaceful, cats are so happy life ~
nice apt, the cats are so adorable
Your mum’s place is beautiful and the surrounding area is so green! The apartment is very cosy and looks absolutely grand.
Very spacious and beautiful apartment 🎉👍🏻👍🏻
The park is kinda sad-looking at the moment because grasses don’t usually survive through winter 😂 I imagine it will be extra beautiful the coming spring 😊
I love the greens around the communities and maintained very well too.
The house is beautiful and the neighborhood is clean. The scenery outside is as beautiful as a painting.
In China the maintenance fees are extremely low, that's the reason not much about amenities are low minimum in the condo fee.
If your brother is not vegetarian, treat him with lamb kabob, he is going to like it
Hard to imagine a rugby player being a vegetarian. lol
wooooow that apartment is AMAZING for only 350 USD like what even???! it's sooo pretty and everything looks so luxe and the scenery is beautiful even though it's a literal barren & empty field lol still better than buildings back to back. unbelievable.
Happy for you and your mom!
Thanks Lizzy - great video.
Kunming is a great city where whole year all days are in comfortable temperature. not too cold and not too hot, just perfect. also nice air. flowers, food and landscape, all perfect.
Great apartment & Nice looking pair of glasses🎉
What a wonderful apartment at an absolutely fabulous price. Just a minor constructive criticism. Whenever showing a bathroom , always have the toilet seat covered. That's just more appealing.
Anyway, wishing your mom a great experience and keep up your labor of love producing these informative and eye opening videos. Much appreciated. Shout out from NYC USA.
Love that your mom got a place there and got CATS!! AMAZING! ❤
In the West, that would be considered a luxury apartment.
在中国的小城市，这也算是普通的公寓，我老家在四线城市，很多这样的住宅🤔
Kunming is known as city of spring. Although I am not from there, the weather is said to be super nice there. I am glad to you and a South African family settle down well in China.
I pay rent of £1,650.oo a month for a 4 bed house 65 miles from London and £234.oo a month Council Tax, and get nothing from the council except my bin emptied once every two weeks.
council tax includes police and fire services beside paying the wages for all the people who runs the council in your area, and its a rip off
@@cuteandfunnyearthlings2863 There are no police and they 'cuff' all Crime Report applications even the most serious ones. As for the WFH council staff that is a joke.
Paying tax is for public services? Maybe in China it called department fee. And it is included in the rent.
@@dengcb By the time the council pay their salaries and pensions there is nothing left for 'services'. There is no Council Tax in China. My wife is Chinese.
Hi Lizzy 👋 my name is M from yemen 🇾🇪 I like 👍 your videos
Absolutely nice apartment 😮
Hi lizzy,I'm chines but I living in the U.S,I wach your videos,but I never been to kingming!I know is called chunchong! I planed to go there if I go back to china!
WOW ! First of all, I love the weather of Kunming, nice all year round and the rent is insanely cheap for that size. I don't mind to live a bit far from city for an apartment like this.
Beautiful,n you are appreciated ❤where are you in China ?
Very nice apartment inside and outside and price is really good. I live in Vancouver, everything is so expensive. 😂😂
That’s a such nice place.
I visited San Diego earlier this year for 10 days, the hotel room is a normal standard one, without breakfast and the building is old, the cost? $300 per night.
Welcome to China , she must enjoy the living
nice life in China
感觉哥哥过来会给你带来粉丝😂😂看大帅哥咯❤❤
Wow your mom has alot of stuff. I would have thought 3 people lived in that apartment lol. How often does she live in her apartment? Isn't traveling back and fourth annoying if she has to do it a few times a week? Nice to see your brother playing Rugby. Same sport as here in Australia, except he probably plays union instead of league.
An apartment in a slum in the USA is about $1500/month.
還以為母女倆會住在一起呢，天天母女情深，結果是兩位生活非常獨立的女性。個人空間可貴，親密閨女勿擾。:D
母女都是非常独立的女性，都有很强的生活技能。
@@dengcb 應該拿給家母粘人精看一看，不過她會裝做看不懂。家母是那種如果她一個人生活，她可以過得看起來很可憐的樣子。:D
I'm surprised your mom didn't go for a "automated" cat litter appliance. We have two cats, and the smell of cat litter went away once my wife got a cat litter appliance.
😸😺😺👍🏻
A automatic cat litter box is a life changer, it will be well cheap as its made in china, get two since theres 3 cats.
如果一周有几天家里没人，自动喂食机是必须的
your video actually makes me want to move to Kunming
would love to see your brother plays a game of village rugby in China😅
Lizzy , en español por favorrrr!!!!!!!
Where do all the foreigners hangout in Kunming? I ll be there next month
闲逛去翠湖、1903、滇池，湖畔之梦小区附近的外国人都是长居中国的。
Hi Lizzy, as a foreigner, besides having a permanent job, what are the other requirements to be able to rent an apartment in China? Thanks for the info.
有护照或者签证然后向所在地的公安局报备即可
在北京中关村租四十多平米的房子需要6000多元😁❤️
顺义或者廊坊，会便宜很多
Welcome your brother come to China🎉🎉
If you see a condo in Thailand, you will be amazed at the luxury and grandeur at a much cheaper price than in China. Rooftop swimming pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, library, cinema room, music room, living room, fitness room, and many more, which are luxurious and much cheaper than condos in China.
Next, they kidnap you to Mynamar and asks for ransom
Thailand does not have such good infrastructure and safe environment as China
If your videos could display prices in both USD and RMB every time, it would be more considerate. Keep it up.
The sound you mad when petting cats shows that you really live here for a long time 😂”ou~yo~”
Could you make a video about how the process is for going there. I understand there is a tourist visa for 10 days, but what after that? And how is it done practically. What about language and bureaucracy? In short what is the process?
That's a beautiful place for 2600RMB. I would love to live there one of these days.
One problem that everyone ignores is that it is also the yuan that is made in China. 5,000 a month, 2600 rent, still very high.
Her mother's salary includes not only basic salary but also performance-based salary, housing subsidy, and transportation subsidy. She mentioned that her mother's school provides a housing subsidy of 3000 RMB, and the rent for this house is only 2600 RMB. She works as a teacher in a Chinese university and earns a salary of over 10000 RMB
❤
Those buildings were 7 floors because they were originally walkups. LOL. Nobody wanted higher. Weird how yours has elevators.
That's what my GF had in an older neighborhood in Chengdu, 6th floor. It was 100m 3 br also. At least it had a real bathtub, but the stupid mini water heater was in the kitchen and she wouldn't turn up the heat. She had 2 nice cats and clutter too. LOL.
Plumbing and heating was horrible of course. The walls are also crazy thick bricks.
In 2014/15 I rode my bicycle from Saigon then thru Guangzi and Guizhou. Then a bus ride to Chengdu for a 9 week stay. Before that I was there for 3 weeks in the quaint developing years, 2006 and 2009.
How far are you guys from Shanghai or Beijing? Guangzhou. Is another place I’ve been. Nigbo etc
非常远。她们住的地方是中国的一个边陲省份--云南：那里四季如春，不会太热也不会太冷。由于远离中国的核心区域，属于中国最不发达省份之一。所居住的城市“昆明”属于介于二线与三线之间的城市：在行政上由于是省会城市属于二线城市，但就经济繁荣与规模而言属于中国的三线城市。
而你说的北京则是中国的政治中心，上海是中国的经济中心，广州是中国的对外贸易中心。宁波属于浙江省，是一座发展中的三线城市。
It's really far away. They live in Yunnan, which is a border province in China. The weather there is nice all year round, not too hot and not too cold at all. Since it's quite a distance from the core areas of China, it's one of the least developed provinces in the country. The city they live in, Kunming, is kind of in between a second-tier and a third-tier city. In terms of administration, as it's the provincial capital, it's considered a second-tier city. But when it comes to economic prosperity and scale, it's actually a third-tier city in China.
And the Beijing you mentioned is the political center of China. Shanghai is the economic center, and Guangzhou is the foreign trade center. Ningbo belongs to Zhejiang Province and it's a developing third-tier city.
@ thank you so much. I love China so much. I manufactured in China from 2000 to 2008. I really want to come back. I’m retired. It’s so cold in Beijing. I use to be there in December a lot. Foreigners were picking up their adopted children during that time. I can’t remember the city but I think the hotel I would stay at was White Swan???? Not clear on it.
Haha. You bet! Beijing is really freezing cold in winter! You know, it's in the north of China, and the weather there makes you feel like you're in Northern Europe. In contrast, Guangzhou is down in the south of China, and it's pretty warm even during the wintertime.
Come to China and relive those good old memories of yours. Compared to when you left in 2008, China has changed a whole lot now. There are just so many differences that I can't list them all for you one by one. Generally speaking, the environment here is nicer for living, and life is a lot more convenient too. Well, both South Korea and Japan in East Asia are doing great when it comes to safety and convenience in daily life. But compared with them, things in China are much cheaper. That's because China makes nearly half of the world's goods, and it's always cheaper to buy stuff where they're produced. Besides, the Chinese government buys a huge amount of grain and meat from all over the world (China has made a ton of money, and it gives back to trading partners in this way to balance the trade deficit. Actually, China's self-sufficiency rate of grain is over 95%). So the government can keep prices at a pretty low level. If you're thinking about living abroad for a long time after you retire, China would be a great choice. If you don't like winters that are too cold, you can choose to live in the southern provincial capitals of China, like Guangzhou City (it's in Guangdong Province), which you've been to before. It's warm all year round, but not overly hot. Also, Kunming City in Yunnan Province is another good option. It's warm there all year round as well. The only difference from Guangzhou is that it's a bit farther away when it comes to transportation. When it comes to food, Guangzhou's cuisine fits Europeans and Americans' tastes better. You see, Guangzhou is China's earliest open port to the outside world. It's been in touch with the West for over 200 years, so its food has blended Western tastes and cooking skills quite well in terms of flavor and how the dishes are prepared.
@ thank you. Yes I often said I’d retire in China. I love the people, the culture and everything about it. They say America is the greatest in the world🤦🏻♀️. Crime is horrendous, no one can afford to live here. Our food is awful full of non food! Expensive! Homelessness everywhere. I’m not tying to put America down but it has changed. I’m 69
And simply over the corruption and lies! It was a great country. Hoping it returns that way again. I want to stay in touch with you if you don’t mind. Again thank you so much for your wealth of information and kindness you’ve shown me💕
@@Warmbreeze43 It's time to enjoy life😄
❤❤❤❤😮
The weather there is very mild!
That’s incredibly cheap. I rent an 1b1b apartment at Austin Texas and I pay 1800+ US dollar per month, which is like 13000 RMB
太便宜了！
👍
Anyone know what brand is the vacuum cleaner?
Do the homes around their have natural gas?
Most residential homes have natural gas.
