What is the cost of living in Sweden for a small family ?

My company wants me to be in Sweden for several years to look after the matters in its branch office in Stockholm. I suppose to live with my family ie: my wife , two kids and probably my mother. The company will pay the house rent.
Can anyone tell me what will be my approximate living expences for a month in Sweden.

You will find the cost of living in Sweden in following link:

The following official website provides you with many good information as what you need to know about Sweden:

However this is for living as a student, it gives a good clue as to estimate how the life expenses look like.

The major part of your life expenses is the rent while you say it is being paid by your company. My approximation as the rent you were supposed to pay for a single family house based on your family size would be at least around 8,000 Swedish Krona (1,200 USD)

The public transport in Sweden is very convenient and modern comparing to US and many other countries in Europe and due to the high price of gas, most people usually use the public transportation.

My wife and I were living in a normal quality of life (Not as many other students who try to minimize their living expenses) with something arround 12,000 to 16,000 Swedish Krona per month (1,750 to 2,350 USD/month) including our rent as 3,500 Swedish Krona/Month (640 USD/Month).

However normally as a "single student", you could live in high living standard with something well below 8,000 SEK/Month (1,200 USD/Month).

I understand that living as a student can't be compared with living of your family in Sweden.

Finally, in my opinion, since you don't have a monthly rent to pay, based on my experience and based on your family size I estimate something at least around 20,000 to 25,000 SEK/Month (3,000 to 3,600 USD/Month) as your family montly expenses there.

i envy you so much. travel and work at the same time.

Good for you. Naturally it depends on the standard you want to live at, but generally for a modest OK living of a family of 5 it will be anything between 1000 and 2000 euro per month.
This is mainly for food and means that you eat lunch in a restaurant (possibly with your colleagues) and the rest of the food is cooked at home.
The utilities usually go with the house rent, but it might be good to check this.
Good luck:)
