Phuket is a popular tourist destination in Thailand, known for its beautiful beaches and clear water. The average salary in Phuket is 25,000 baht per month. That's slightly higher than the average salary in Thailand, which is 22,000 baht per month. The cost of living on Phuket is also higher than in other parts of Thailand, but that's to be expected given the island's popularity as a tourist destination. Expats wishing to live and work in Phuket must ensure they are earning enough to cover their living expenses. However, those able to do so will find that Phuket is a great place to live with plenty to see and do.
