- Nextgrid 2y agoUK is the most expensive third-world country I've had the displeasure of visiting (and before that, living in). If you want the extreme of "cheap and run down", some Eastern European countries fit the bill. If you want the other extreme of "expensive and well-kept", Switzerland. But Britain is in a unique place of both "expensive and run down".
