What are the most challenging aspects of retiring in Sweden?

Answer this Question

We asked retirees what they find the most challenging about retiring in Sweden. They wrote...

"One of the most challenging aspects of retiring in Sweden is the high cost of living. Sweden is one of the most expensive countries in Europe, and the cost of housing, food, and other necessities can be prohibitively expensive for retirees. Additionally, the Swedish pension system is complex and can be difficult to navigate, making it difficult for retirees to understand their rights and benefits. Furthermore, the language barrier can be a challenge for retirees who are not native Swedish speakers, as many services and benefits are only available in Swedish. Finally, the climate in Sweden can be difficult to adjust to, with long, dark winters and short, cool summers," wrote a member who made the move to Sweden.
