Thanks Patrick. My girlfriend is from Gifu and I have been entertaining the thought of moving there next year. I'm actually surprised that living expenses are higher than I thought. Those numbers are pretty similar to what I spend living in my city in Canada.

You can do it a bit cheaper if you're willing to live more like a Japanese salaryman than I do. (i.e. smaller apartment, more cooked meals.) Still, Japan is a rich country with rich country prices, even in semi-rural areas like Gifu. If you do come to Gifu, look me up. I enjoy giving tours.
