Features of the budget
As in any country of the world, costs in the UK are directly linked to the lifestyle and place of residence. In large cities such as London, the prices are higher than in the provinces and rural areas of the country. However, there are exceptions: for example, the cost of living in the "country" of Scotland is higher than in similar towns in England.

Many foreigners come to Britain in search of stable work and high standard of living. And, although local wages are quite high, the expenses can hardly be called a advantage of living in Albion. In recent years, monthly costs per family increased significantly, mainly due to the rising cost of automobile insurance services and energy prices. And the main spending categories remain the property and transport.
Since the start of the financial crisis of 2008, the cost of living in the UK has grown four times faster than it increased the average wage in the country.
The currency of UK is pound sterling (
