"Before retiring in Melbourne, expats should familiarize themselves with the Australian visa regulations and make sure they comply with the criteria for obtaining a retirement visa. It is also important to consider the cost of living in Melbourne, which offers a variety of lifestyle options, so that retirement plans fit the budget. A large number of health care options are available, so it is essential to check what services are covered by Medicare and any additional insurance needed so as to be adequately covered. Research into safety and security in the neighborhood of choice is important to ensure that living conditions meet the expectations of the retiree. Finally, research into the culture in Melbourne, including the sightseeing and leisure activities on offer, may help the expat find the best fit in terms of a home and lifestyle," said another expat in Melbourne, Australia, Australia.
