What do people like (and dislike) about Bergen?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Bergen, they replied...

"Expats and digital nomads generally like the stunning natural beauty of Bergen, with its picturesque fjords, mountains, and waterfalls. They appreciate the city's rich history and well-preserved architecture, such as the UNESCO World Heritage site of Bryggen. The quality of life in Bergen is high, with excellent healthcare, education, and public transportation systems. The city is also known for its friendly and welcoming locals, making it easy for expats to feel at home. On the other hand, expats and digital nomads often dislike the high cost of living in Bergen, as Norway is known for being an expensive country. This includes high prices for housing, groceries, dining out, and entertainment. The weather in Bergen can also be a downside, as the city is known for its frequent rain and relatively mild temperatures throughout the year. Additionally, while many locals speak English, the Norwegian language can be challenging to learn for some expats, which may limit their ability to fully integrate into the local community. Finally, the job market in Bergen can be competitive, and it may be difficult for expats to find work without a strong command of the Norwegian language or specialized skills in high-demand industries," said a member in Bergen, Norway.
