What are the most challenging aspects of retiring in Almaty?

Answer this Question

We asked retirees what they find the most challenging about retiring in Almaty. They wrote...

"One of the most challenging aspects of retiring in Almaty is the language barrier. Although Russian is widely spoken, many people in Almaty do not speak English, making it difficult for retirees to communicate with locals. Additionally, the cost of living in Almaty is relatively high, making it difficult for retirees to live comfortably on a fixed income. Furthermore, the healthcare system in Almaty is not as advanced as in other countries, making it difficult for retirees to access quality medical care. Finally, the climate in Almaty can be extreme, with hot summers and cold winters, making it difficult for retirees to adjust to the weather," wrote a member who made the move to Almaty, Kazakhstan.
