Guys, I am moving to Oslo, Norway in one month. I was wondering you who live/lived there, how would describe the total income of NOK 700k per annum? (impossible, budget, average, high, incredible?) We are a couple. and with such a salary, what could be a reasonable rental per month which leaves enough money for the rest of things. I have no idea about it and would be helpful if you can give me some estimation.

Hi New.Migrant, Norway is an extremely expensive country with a very high cost of living. Check out our Cost of Living in Norway page to see what you can expect to pay for things in the country. Accommodation is likely to be one of your biggest expenses, but it is quite normal for employers to include a housing allowance in your employment contract, so it may be worth checking that this is included. You can have a look at our Accommodation in Norway page to find out more about housing options in the country.
