Costs Comparison between UK and China

It’s important to note that not everything is cheaper – imported items will be similar or more expensive than the UK. But for basic living needs, getting around and entertainment, being located in China means you can enjoy a richer, more comfortable lifestyle – and keep more of what you earn, as you can see above.
