Default Accra, Ghana

Rent: 1100 dollars pcm for 2-bed flat house in town centre, no garden
Utilities: Ridiculously expensive. $35-40 water, $150 pcm electricity. Using AC constantly bumps up bill significantly
Transportation: Public transport dirt cheap but dangerous. Gas, GHC1 per litre and I have a gas-guzzling Nissan Xterra but when I had my old banger, didn't spend that much (except when old banger had leaky tank and someone nicked her petrol cap).
Food: Mad expensive if you want to eat imported goodies or treat yourself in a nice restaurant. Local food cheap but poor quality, hygiene standards very low.

Accra is VERY expensive. Strange, but true.
