Expensive but Relatively Affordable
We know this sounds like a paradox but bear with us. In Sweden, the cost of living is higher than many of its European neighbors. This is especially true if you decide to pack up and move to Stockholm, the nation’s capital.

The good news is that the median salary in Stockholm and other densely populated cities in Sweden is quite high. So, while you may be able to afford an apartment, you might not have a ton to save at the end of every month. This is just something to keep in mind if you plan on living and working in Stockholm long-term.
