You can rent an apt. for as little as 400 a month to about 1000 a month (E.C. the change is as follows EC/2.67 = US dollars)

Food can cost anywhere from 500 a month to 1000 depending on what and how often you eat. Getting around is cheap, but life is so much easier if you get a car (aprox. 1000 EC a month for a piece of garbage)

Electricity can get pricey... anywhere from 300 - 500 (EC) a month depending on if you use your AC a lot... I use mine all day and night and pay around 600 EC a month ... but friends pay far less than me.

Internet (if not included in rent) I think ranges from 40 - 60 a month for DSL but I am not positive as it is included in my rent.

Finally gas for your oven (if you cook often) figure around 30 EC every two months...

Hope that helps
