Overall consumption is not much different from other economically developed areas, according to the standard of July 2021:

Breakfast: 2 steamed buns + soy milk, about 5 RMB. Lunch: 15-30 RMB for a set meal at a fast food restaurant. Dinner: too much to choose from, just like noon to eat a simple meal is fine, if you improve, that three or five colleagues in the restaurant to order food to eat, per capita is only 40-50 yuan.

Don't listen to the extremely high consumption, so that people are not familiar with Wuxi, they will not choose inexpensive and good value for money in residential neighborhoods near the restaurant. I don't think Wuxi is more expensive than any other area on the coast when it comes to food.

It's even cheaper if you buy your own groceries and cook your own meals. As a working class person, we should have to cook for ourselves, and 2,000-3,000 yuan per month for a family of three is more than enough.

When it comes to other necessities, there is basically no difference in price between supermarkets in Wuxi and those in other places, and there is even less of a price difference if you shop online.

The biggest consumer is actually the rent, the rent goes up every year, the people who have a house do not feel, rent a house, every month from the salary out of a part of the rent is really painful, sometimes the rent is catching up with a month of meal money. But this is no way, for the more developed cities, the rent is expensive is common, is the fact that workers can not change.

Overall the food and drink consumption is not high, including clothes can also be online shopping, is not expensive. Young people try to control their own consumption, do not overspend, or where to live money is not enough to spend.
