What do I need to know before retiring in Bergen?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Bergen, they said...

"Expats considering retiring in Bergen should be aware that the cost of living is relatively high compared to other parts of the country. It is important to research the local housing market and the availability of rental properties before making a decision. Additionally, the weather in Bergen can be quite unpredictable, with temperatures ranging from mild to cold and wet. Expats should also be aware that the language spoken in Bergen is Norwegian, so it is important to learn the language or at least some basic phrases before moving there. Finally, Bergen is a great place to retire, with plenty of outdoor activities, cultural attractions, and a vibrant nightlife," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Bergen, Norway.
