Hi, I've an EU passport and want to move to the Fuengirola area (not Marbella because I'm not a millionaire)!
I've been searching for a while to find out how much money I would need for rent and utility bills. Are the prices realistic for a single household?
Small apartment around 650 Euros/month
Water around 50 Euros/month
Electricity around 100 Euros/month
Phone/internet around 40 Euros/month
Not sure about council tax.
Thank you in advance for any help/opinion
Christine

Re: Is it realistic?
You look about right - watch out for possible urbanisation fees, and income tax though.

Landlord usually pays the urbanisation fees I think. Would need to double check that as they can be high in some places.

Thank you.
I've just seen you're living in the area I would like to move to, maybe a cheeky question, but do you know of any companies I could apply for a German/English speaker?

MilkyWay. I commented on your post on another forum, when you mentioned fuengerola. that is the western costa del sol
Wicksey is on the Axarquia coast - think nerja, torre del mar. eastern malaga.
The two are VERY different, with the axarquia being much nicer, more spread out, "old spain"... fuengerola is built up apartment blocks - benidorm of the south.

Yes, Spanish Lad is right, I am on the eastern side of Malaga so I can't offer any suggestions I'm afraid. There may be others nearer to you that can though!
