What the Poland estimate is built from
By the combined cost-and-rent index, Poland ranks 15 of 36 countries in this dataset. Its index is 39% below the US baseline used here. This compares indices; it is not a quote for every city.
Method
The baseline is €2,450 per month for one adult in an average US city, renting a private home with a balanced lifestyle. We multiply it by the country's combined-index ratio to 56.3, then apply the selected city, housing, household and lifestyle factors.
Limitations
A country index hides large differences between cities. Before moving, verify actual rent, taxes, visa costs, insurance, healthcare, childcare and transport for the chosen city.

Planning estimate based on 2026 country price and rent indices. A city, neighborhood, visa, taxes, childcare and healthcare can change the real budget substantially.
