Karachi - Post Report Question and Answers

What are the particular advantages of living in this city?

The cost of living is dirt cheap; the average annual wages for a Pakistani is US$1,500. As an expat earning Western wages, you can live like a king in Karachi. It is very easy to save more than half of your annual wages while living in Karachi. The weather is not too bad either. Yes, it is hot in the summer, but the humidity is relatively low, which makes the high temperatures more bearable. The sun is often out and cloudy days are far and few between. - Aug 2015
