Where to live

Hi, I'll be moving to Luxembourg in June with 2 teenagers who'll be attending the ISL. We have found a lovely house to rent in Hostert, but know little about the area - transport links, nearby shopping etc. Is this area considered remote and isolated? Do other expats live there?Any insights greatly appreciated.

Hi Perg45,
First of all, I hope you enjoy this new adventure!
I moved there when I was 12 in 2007, and my parents are moving back this fall back to the USA for good (about 10 years after an original 2 year assignment). I attended ISL for the entire time and loved every minute of it. The school and community are extremely welcoming as everyone has been the new kid so they get it.
We lived in Bertrange from 2007-2010 and then in Belair from 2010-2012. These two communities have a large expat community and are quite close to ISL.
Hostert is not a bad location at all and some expats do live there yes.
Getting to school by bus from Hostert (if you do not plan on driving them each day) might be a little tricky but the school is really close to the city. I think they would take the bus into the Hamilius (main bus depot) and then switch on to another bus that brings them right near the school Hostert is not really that remote or isolated, but from my experience most expats do live in the Bertrange/Strassen/Belair area (west of the city).
