Prague Rent: Centre of town is expensive by any standard because much of the property is for tourist use of owned by expats. It drops quickly as you move away from pretty bits (check out Zizkov or Andel) €500-2500 for two bed. Bills: €30 internet. Travel: €200 annual travel card, singles about €1. Going out: Carnivorous? You're in luck. €4 will purchase an enormous hearty meal and 0.5l beer in a local pub. If you want to hand out with the beautiful people, you'll pay for the privilege. Other: Flat-rate tax! 19% corp and 15% income. The government is working hard to make Czech a business-friendly place but expect to spend hours in queues unless you pay lawyer to take care of it for you. Strong engineering and hacker culture. Great python and ruby communities. HTH
