Is it true that most people in Algeria earn less than $100.00 per month in wages ?

Q: I was wondering how much most Algerians earn per week or per month.I thought I read somewhere that they are very hard workers but earn around 1.00 per hour.Is this true ?

A: Not exactely. The net minimum wage is 15 000 Algerian Dinars, i.e. approximately USD 225 per month. This is the minimum salary net of taxes.This is the minimum legal salary. This means that many people earn more than that. You can assume that average monthly salary (net of taxes) is around USD750. Also, in Algeria, the cost of living is lower than in western countries. One bread cost is 15 cents, 1 liter of milk cost 35 cents, etc. Medical care is free, education is free, etc.
