Moving to Minturno, Italy

"Minturno is a small town in the Lazio region of Italy, located on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is known for its beautiful beaches and stunning views of the Mediterranean. Expats should be aware that Minturno is a small town and may not have all the amenities of a larger city. It is important to research the local area and find out what services are available. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local customs and culture, as well as the language, as English is not widely spoken in Minturno. Finally, expats should be aware of the cost of living in Minturno, as it is generally higher than other parts of Italy," said one expat in Minturno.

"We moved over a 3 year period giving us time to adjust 2 weeks at a time. We brought only things meaningful (family items), clothes, some small furniture items and will continue bringing things such as art work each trip we return to/from US. Find a place where the people seem helpful and friendly. Very few speak English here, but we found some wonderful people from the beginning that welcomed us and helped convince us that this was home. You shouldn't feel completely comfortable - this is an adventure. That said, we found a small town in a semi- rural community much like we were use to in the US. We found beauty and the targets we had identified - railway, sea, mountains, nature preserves, archeology and great food," remarked one expat who made the move to Minturno.
