10 Reasons to live in KL – A Vibrant, Affordable City

Kuala Lumpur is a beautiful and exciting city, one that embraces nature in and around the city. A tropical city that has the buzz of a vibrant metropolis, and yet laidback enough to afford a lifestyle, that is diverse and colourful. Multicultural festivals abound. People are friendly and helpful. Delicious local food and international cuisine is widely available. Best of all, KL is the gateway to many tropical islands, nature reserves and hill resorts around the country.

All these make KL, one of the best places to live in Asia.

Stable and democratic country

Low cost of living

The Worldwide Cost of Living Survey 2012 Mercer report highlighted that KL continues to offer quality living at affordable cost.

The survey covers 214 cities across five continents and measures the comparative cost of over 200 items in each location, including transport, food, clothing, household goods and entertainment. The cost of housing is also included and, as it is often the biggest expense for expatriates, it plays an important part in determining where cities are ranked.
