A sales consultant in Kyiv spends 76% of their salary on renting a one-bedroom apartment, while a driver allocates 52%.
This information is derived from a study by LUN and Work.ua.
If the driver opts for a two-bedroom apartment, their expenses rise to over 72% of their monthly income, and for the sales consultant, it reaches 105%.
Additionally, the driver cannot afford a three-bedroom apartment, as the average rental cost amounts to 123% of their earnings.
Moreover, a cleaner in Kyiv cannot even afford a one-bedroom apartment, since their average salary covers only 112% of the typical rental price.
In Lviv, renting a one-bedroom apartment is even more expensive for a sales consultant – 83% of their income, whereas in Odesa, the situation is much better at only 41% of their salary needed for rent.
