What do people like (and dislike) about Antwerp?

"Expats and digital nomads generally like living in Antwerp, for several reasons. They appreciate the city's rich history, stunning architecture, and vibrant art scene, which includes numerous museums and galleries. The city's compact size and efficient public transportation system make it easy to navigate and explore. Additionally, Antwerp is known for its multicultural atmosphere, with a diverse population and a wide variety of international cuisine options. The cost of living in Antwerp is relatively affordable compared to other European cities, making it an attractive option for digital nomads. The city also offers a high quality of life, with excellent healthcare, education, and safety standards. Expats and digital nomads also enjoy the city's lively social scene, with numerous bars, cafes, and events to attend. However, there are some aspects of living in Antwerp that expats and digital nomads may dislike. The weather can be unpredictable, with frequent rain and grey skies, which may be a downside for those who prefer sunnier climates. The language barrier can also be a challenge, as Dutch is the primary language spoken in Antwerp. While many locals speak English, it can still be difficult to navigate certain situations without knowledge of the local language. Another potential drawback is the relatively high tax rates in Belgium, which may be a concern for some expats and digital nomads. Finally, while Antwerp is a beautiful and historic city, it may not offer the same level of excitement and entertainment options as larger European cities like Paris or London," commented one expat who made the move to Antwerp, Belgium.
