Dutchfag here,
Netherlands is expensive, IMO Worlds most expensive gas prices for regular gas, is about 8.49~8.82USD a gallon ATM 1.52~1.58 EUR a liter @ 1 EUR = 1.47 USD. If the dollar prices go back up like last month, it would go round 10USD a gallon again. 19% sales tax in general, food is 6% , though you don't notice it.
so if you're from the US and saved for this, you're in for a rough surprise, cuz your money isn't worth much here.
On the other hand, it's a real student city, and a colleague tells me theres a "pub-flat" where there's 16 pubs in a single building, with mostly english speaking wiminz. (<- do want to see)
Though, living near amsterdam i have to say Amsterdam > Groningen.
in b4 weed.
