The cost of living in each city will have its own standards, including in big cities like Jakarta. For workers, especially immigrants, of course they want to be able to live properly in the capital city. If you have salary Rp 5 million, can you live properly in Jakarta??
Financial planning expert Andy Nugroho also tries to describe what it means to live a decent life in Jakarta.
“We’re talking about a decent life, right? It means having a place to live, being able to eat, being able to go to the office to work, there’s transportation money, then we can dress appropriately according to our work. That’s what I call a decent life, in my opinion,” said Andy to detik.comFriday (10/6/2022).
To answer this question, assume here is a worker or gen z who has just started work. That is, they can be said to be boarding children or rented and not married.
“Put it for a medium contract fee of around Rp. 1.5 million. Below that too, it is more expensive than that? There are many. Around the Kuningan area, Setiabudi is the medium one. It costs about Rp. 1.5 million to live in. ,” he explained.
“Then eat to be able to live, at least 4 healthy 5 perfect are still sufficient. The price of eating is around Rp. 20 thousand, this is not eating in a fancy restaurant. A day means Rp. 60 thousand, suppose a month if we are consistent we need a budget of Rp. 1.8 million ,” continued Andy.
Andy also said the range for transportation costs to and from work, using public transportation in Jakarta.
“Transportation costs, for example, we take TransJakarta or maybe continue to take public transportation or KRL. This is an online non-taxi public transportation or online motorcycle taxi. At least in the range of Rp. 20 thousand per day. Suppose we need Rp. 600 thousand for 1 month,” he explained. .
