Where is the cheapest cost of living in Finland?

Finland is a very expensive country compared to many others. To tell you the truth i would say the minimum cost of living for me is over 10.000 euros per year considering the fact that i am married with one child (15 years of age) and this is only for food and shelter. the food prices are not as bad however when it comes to buying clothing etc, i wait till sales to buy anything as the prices are VERY HIGH! compared to London, Sweden, Estonia etc

however if it is for education then i would say it is worth it as Finland's education system is considered the best in the world. However, it is very tough, forexample they teach secondary school things at primary school level... so i hope you got the picture

i hope i helped you :)
