What is the cost of living in Sweden as a family?

That… rather depends on the size of the family and the standard of living that you want.
Thanks for the A2A.
Maybe this is more relevant to someone asking from abroad: if you make less money than this, have a time-limited residency, and want to bring your family over to live with you, it is most likely going to be denied. You are not considered to make enough money to be able to support them.
What are some things that children used to wait for, but are no longer common in today's society?
But what’s known as the subsistence minimum (“existensminimum”) is SEK 10,061 per month for a couple living together, plus SEK 3,255 per month for each child up to 6 years of age, and SEK 3,906 per month for each child above years of age. If you make less money than this (after tax and, crucially, housing), you are officially in need of financial support of some kind.
