Cost of living in France? Anyone know the current cost of Living in France?

Question

Anyone know the current cost of Living in France? i am thinking about going there.

Answer 1

It is quite higher than in North America.  The euro, though it has a market value of 1.5 Canadian or American dollars, can be considered par when buying things.  That can sound confusing so let me clarify:

    When you go to a store, the prices you see, if were equal in value (calculate the currency exchange), would be lower in euro than in dollars.  Something that's 10$ here would be expected to be 5 euro there.  What actually happens is that it is 10 euro.
