Life here is predictable and safe, providing a calm pace that contrasts sharply with major European hubs. You’ll find reliable public transport and decent healthcare, which eases the transition for families looking for consistency.
However, the expat community is exceptionally small, meaning social integration requires more proactive effort than in larger cities. While the cost of living remains highly manageable, you should prepare for a more localized experience with limited international amenities and a much smaller cultural bubble.
