Could anyone out there please give me a run-down on the cost of living in Helsinki, including the cost of renting an apartment? Looking into maybe staying for a while, and need some info. Thanx!

I know it's pretty cheap as western europe goes. My friend lives there, and he pays 500 euros for a one bedroom flat, and it's right in the centre of helsinki near all the nightlife etc. I was surprised as I thought it would be expensive like scandinavia.
