It will be different for everyone. Work out how much your rent and transport costs will be, then what you need for food and entertainment. :smile:

Also depends on which part of London you will be living in.

To comfortably manage life in London, you'd ideally need a post-tax income of around £2,000 to £2,500 per month, covering your basic needs like rent, bills, groceries, transport, and a bit extra for personal expenses.
