There is an active thread about cost of living in Hua Hin, Thailand on the local expat forum. Most of the posts are from one of two types of expats: golfers with families and assets, single men who live in studio apartments. I live in Hua Hin and found it useful to see how the other half lives (I don't golf).
Cliff's notes version: Western lifestyle by those who can't imagine LBYM is a large fraction of cost in home country. Comfortable lifestyle with some western amenities costs considerably less.
Cost of living in Hua Hin
Hua Hin is a beach town that some say has the best golfing in the country. It's one of the most expensive places to live in Thailand. Many of the posters are English or European. When reading it's helpful to know that right now $1 USD = .7 Euro = .6 Pound = 30 b (or bt or Thai Baht)
