Agreeing with Jeannie, a TikToker emphasized that Singapore is an exceptionally costly place to live.
Shouldn’t it be “live in”?
Thanks.

Thanks.
Could someone please help?
Yes, you are right.
But, many a time, I have seen users of English, particularly Americans, writing and saying ‘A good place to live’.
However, if it is expanded to a clause, the preposition ‘in’ may not appear as in this sentence: … Singapore is an exceptionally costly place where people cannot live.
If you use the relative pronoun ‘which’, it will become necessary as in: …Singapore is an exceptionally costly place which people cannot live in. (place in which people cannot live.)
