What do I need to know before retiring in Stavanger?

"Before retiring in Stavanger, expats should be aware that the cost of living is high, and that the climate is temperate with mild winters and cool summers. It is important to research the local healthcare system and to make sure that you have the necessary insurance coverage. Additionally, it is important to familiarize yourself with the local language, as English is not widely spoken. Finally, it is important to research the local tax laws and regulations to ensure that you are compliant with all applicable laws," said another expat in Stavanger, Norway.
