What do I need to know before moving to Hungary?

"Expats should be aware that Hungary is a landlocked country in Central Europe, bordered by Austria, Slovakia, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Croatia, and Slovenia. The official language is Hungarian, although English is widely spoken in the larger cities. Expats should also be aware that Hungary has a temperate climate with cold winters and warm summers. It is important to note that Hungary is a member of the European Union, and as such, expats may need to obtain a visa or residence permit in order to stay in the country for an extended period of time. Additionally, expats should be aware that the cost of living in Hungary is generally lower than in other European countries, making it an attractive destination for those looking to save money. Finally, expats should be aware that Hungary has a rich cultural heritage, with a variety of festivals and events taking place throughout the year," said a member in Hungary.

"Stay away from the party districts unless you want to party. Those would be in the center of the Pest side of the city. Traffic is bad and loud as are the tourist. A good area is District 1 right under the castle. Consider using the public transportation when you choose your place. It's only about 35 usds per month and you can use anything; bus, tram, metro, and short train routes. Parking will be expensive if you can get a permit and a garage is hard to find as is an apartment with parking," remarked another expat who made the move to Budapest, Hungary.
