About Kol Shekel
Estimate the cost of living in Israel before you move
Kol Shekel is a simple online calculator for people planning aliyah or relocation to Israel.
It helps you estimate how much life in Israel may cost based on your household, city, housing needs, transportation, and lifestyle.
The calculator gives you a practical estimate of:
- monthly living expenses
- rent and housing costs
- groceries, utilities, transportation, restaurants, and shopping
- recommended net household income
- suggested savings before moving
- possible first-month setup costs
Kol Shekel is made for people who want a quick and realistic starting point before making big relocation decisions.
Whether you are moving alone, as a couple, with children, or as a single parent, the goal is to help you understand your possible budget in Israel more clearly.
The estimates are approximate and should be used for general planning only. They should not be used as your only source for estimating the cost of living in Israel. We recommend doing your own research, checking current prices, comparing several sources, and contacting official or recognized organizations that help with aliyah and relocation planning.
Actual costs can vary depending on your city, neighborhood, apartment, lifestyle, family needs, and personal situation.
Kol Shekel does not provide financial, legal, tax, or immigration advice. It is a planning tool designed to help you prepare, compare scenarios, and feel more confident about your move to Israel.
