"Expats in Austria often appreciate the laid-back and relaxed atmosphere of the country. They marvel at the stunning scenery and feel a strong sense of connection to the natural beauty of the region. Expats also love Austria for its incredible cultural offerings, from classical music to art and architecture. The country also boasts an engaging and vibrant history, with an abundance of castles and palaces and quaint Alpine-style small towns.

"Vienna is a great town with much to do. It is probably among the best cities in the world in which to live. Austrians are not necessarily difficult and English is spoken by virtually everyone now but closeness is still an issue," explained one expat living in Vienna, Austria.
