What do people like (and dislike) about Hungary?
When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Hungary, they replied...
"Expats and digital nomads often appreciate the low cost of living in Hungary, as well as the country's rich cultural heritage and vibrant cities. They also enjoy the friendly locals, the delicious food, and the easy access to outdoor activities. On the other hand, some expats and digital nomads may find the language barrier and bureaucracy challenging, as well as the lack of job opportunities. Additionally, the cold winters can be a deterrent for some," remarked another expat who made the move to Hungary.
"The location is SAFE !! Very safe. I never felt this safe in UK. People very friendly and polite. You could walk home alone in the middle of the night without fear," explained one expat living in Budapest, Hungary.
