    Uzbek journalist about life in USA: Monthly rental cost is around $3,000-3,500

    Uzbek journalist about life in USA: Monthly rental cost is around $3,000-3,500

    What problems can people expect who are going to move to the United States of America? What is the minimum amount of money needed to stay there for a month? Navbakhor Imomova, a correspondent of the Voice of America TV and Radio company, who has been living in the USA since 2001, answered these questions.

    "In Washington, New York, and other expensive cities, you need to earn from $ 1,500 to $2,000 a month to be able to buy the necessary products every day and support yourself, but if you have a family, it is impossible to live on this money. In most of America, you can't live in a one-bedroom house if you have two children, it's illegal. The cheapest house for such a family in Washington or neighboring Baltimore will cost you, if you're lucky, $1,500-$2,000. Most often it is an apartment in very poor condition. Housing with all amenities will cost from $3,000 to 3,500 per month. A family of four has to spend $400–$600 a week on food," the journalist says.

    According to Imomova, newly arrived immigrants to the United States can earn about $40,000-$50,000 a year, but it depends on the person, their efforts, their potential, qualifications.

    "People who want to live in America should be prepared for various challenges. It is difficult to start life in a foreign country from scratch, it requires strength and savings. It is difficult to find those who could lend here. Surely, you can open a bank account, but to get a loan, you need a certain financial history. I've seen people of different ages. I am familiar with pensioners who moved to the United States, mastered a new profession at a sufficiently mature age, learned a language, found a new family. But there are also those who came here at a young age, but could not adapt to this reality and returned to Uzbekistan. If a person has a strong will, desire, perseverance, patience and hard work, then the chance of finding yourself in the USA is extremely high. It will be easy for experienced, educated, qualified people to adapt. Someone who can communicate in English at least at an elementary level will also find a job," the Voice of America correspondent says.

    Recently, the U.S. State Department has announced the winners of the 2024 Diversity Visa lottery and Uzbekistan is among the leaders in the number of approved green cards with over 5,000 winners.
