Water is very cheap compared to the UK. Our water bills are around 25-30 Euros for 3 months. No TV licence. Car insurance and tax depends very much on the size of engine and emmisions. For anything over 2ltr engine very expensive, under 1600 its cheap.
As you are not in receipt of a a govenrment retirement pension you will need health insurance at least to start with. If you get work and pay into the social fund you will then be entitled to health care at the government hospitals.
Regards
Veronica
