Cool

One bedroom apartments are as expensive as 2 or 3 bedrooms places. Forget looking for a place of your own, search around for a room in a larger place and you will see a quite few that are in the $500-$800 range and close to the city.

Google is your best friend here, but to give you an idea, use PropertyGuru.com to have a look at the going rates.

Your tax figure is wrong, that is for foreigners working here on short term contracts. If you come over here long term you will be taxed the same as a resident. Look at the IRAS website to give you an idea of what level you will pay. If you earn $5,000 a month you will only pay around $2,000 a year tax.
