Speaking of places where few of us could afford to live, Hong Kong, Zurich, and Tokyo are considered to be very expensive cities, but the city-state in Asia, Singapore, is on top of the list and it is the most expensive city in the world to live in.

Now without a further ado let’s see what Insider Monkey has investigated for us. We have picked three countries with the highest cost of living in the world in 2017 from their list.

The first country is Sweden that is a Nordic country located in Scandinavia, and it is well-known for its high living standard. Frozen wastelands and cozy cottages are typical for this country. If you are planning to live in this beautiful country, you may want to prepare for the high costs and freezing winters. France is a delightful country with rich history, but not a very cheap one. Rent and utilities are considered to be very pricey in France, and so this country managed to get on our list of countries with the highest cost of living in the world in 2017. Living in Paris is definitely much more expensive than living in the Provance. At last, but not least we are recommending Australia for you now. Officially the Commonwealth of Australia, the country that is, in fact, a smallest continent in the world. If you are planning on traveling to Australia, you better prepare a nice amount of money as it is rather expensive. Sydney is the most expensive city in Australia.
