What do I need to know before retiring in Finland?

Answer this Question

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

"Expats considering retiring in Finland should be aware that the country has a cold climate and long, dark winters. It is important to research the cost of living in Finland, as it is generally higher than in other European countries. Expats should also be aware that the Finnish language is widely spoken and it is beneficial to learn some basic phrases before moving to Finland. Additionally, expats should research the healthcare system in Finland and make sure they have the necessary insurance coverage. Finally, expats should be aware that Finland is a very safe country with low crime rates," commented one expat who made the move to Finland.
