Is Living in Japan Expensive?

That question can only be answer depending on where you live. If I was asked that question, I would tell them, yes, Japan is quite expensive to live in. Coming from the USA, the prices here are very high. I do believe after awhile of adjusting to a place, I may just adopt to the prices and I would think nothing of it. It is all part of living and it is what it is. I hope.

I’ll let you be the judge. Here are some products I’ve taken at a supermarket. It is fairly easy to convert yen to US dollars. Since the exchange rate fluctuates from day to day, I will teach you how to get an average price. Read the total yen price and drop two digitals to get the US price. So, $1 is equivalent to 100yen. 1,000yen is about $10. 4,500yen is about $45. 10,000yen is about $100. Easy right?
