What do I need to know before moving to Antwerp?

Answer this Question

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

"Antwerp is a vibrant city with a rich cultural heritage and a wide range of activities to enjoy. Expats should be aware that the official language of Belgium is Dutch, so it is important to learn some basic Dutch before moving to Antwerp. Expats should also be aware that the cost of living in Antwerp is relatively high, so it is important to budget accordingly. Additionally, Antwerp has a temperate climate with mild winters and warm summers, so expats should be prepared for the changing weather. Finally, expats should be aware that Antwerp is a very safe city, with low crime rates and a strong sense of community," said a member in Antwerp, Belgium.
