About Tokat

Tokat is a cheap place to live, with a 1-bedroom in the center at $324/mo and a single adult budget tier at $396/mo, but the local average net salary of $1,135/mo means you need remote income or savings to make it comfortable. The overall expat score of 83/100 and FIRE score of 85/100 are strong, yet the digital nomad score of 57/100 and retiree score of 63/100 reflect the limited English proficiency and very few expats. Safety is solid at a 70/100 index, and the continental climate delivers hot, dry summers and cold, snowy winters. Come for the low costs and quiet, not for a built-in social scene.
