Similarly the students who migrate to Turkey focus on low cost of living and facilitated life style.
As far as the income is concerned, the people working on low category jobs get such amount that can ensure proper life style. The cost of education in state run schools is quiet affordable for every one working and living in Turkey. In some places the education in state schools is free of cost but the education instruction language is Turkish. The two mediums of instruction are there. One is English medium and the other one is Turkish. The low or nil cost of schooling does not mean that the quality of education in governmental schools is inferior rather state run schools are to facilitate the masses.
The house rents vary from the quality and location of dwellings. The government employees get the house rent allowance so they live in the affordable houses. But in general housing is not a big issue as the minimum house rent is 250$. The minimum wage rate in the country is around three hundred dollars per day that makes the house rent affordable.
