Agreed with Kizze. These numbers are very off. How can it cost $9K BB to live there but the average pay is less than $2k BB.

I want to live in Barbados.
Can someone please help me out with answers to all my questions?
Kizze on Jun 22, 2021:
Clearly the person who collated this data has never lived in Barbados and I’m pleased to say that information is total hog wash. I live in a family of five and we have never spent that amount of money to live in any month. And we don’t pay rent. Most people in Barbados don’t buy coffee to drink at work. They either make it at home or make it work so it costs less than $8.00. Buying a coffee drink is a treat not an everyday thing. A lot of the things included in this number Bajan’s don't do.
