Jonzy's catalog estimates roughly $1,380/month all-in living costs in Zagreb (about $700/mo for a mid-market one-bedroom), with safety scored 84/100, internet 82/100, and visa difficulty rated "Easy". Špica on Saturday morning: Saturday from 10:00-13:00 every Zagreber descends on Tkalčićeva, Bogovićeva and Cvjetni trg for špica (the see-and-be-seen coffee parade). Skip the touristy Dolac Market spots and grab a table early at Eli's Caffe. Euro now, but cash for kvartovska: Croatia adopted the euro 1 January 2023, so no more kuna confusion. Card works in city centre but small bakery, kiosk and the green market vendors prefer cash; ATMs everywhere with no Croatian bank fees on EU cards. For neighbourhood detail, cost breakdowns, and visa paths, see the full Zagreb city guide.

Štrukli, ćevapi and Dolac Market: Štrukli (baked cottage-cheese pasta) is the Zagreb-region specialty; La Štruk and Vinodol do the classic versions. Dolac Market above Ban Jelačić is for Saturday produce; the meat market downstairs is where to ask for ćevapi.
