In terms of consumption, Suzhou is higher than Harbin, and all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation are higher than Harbin.
The salary level is also one level lower, generally about 800- 1200 in Harbin and 0/200-1500 in Suzhou.
Of course, I'm talking about universal minimum standards. We can't discuss the annual salary of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.
However, to be comfortable, Harbin is certainly better. As one of the top ten cities in China, it has a beautiful environment, relatively low consumption and cheap house prices. Life is very comfortable.
There are many opportunities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta, but the competition is fierce and the cost of living is high.
For example, the rent for a room and a kitchen in Harbin is about 600 yuan per month, and Suzhou is at least 1200 yuan. If it weren't for the high salary, Suzhou would definitely not be as comfortable as Harbin.
