Dreaming of a comfortable lifestyle for your retirement?
5 reasons why relocating to Hungary for retirement is a smart move
Each year millions of Europeans put away their work clothes for the final time and call it a career.
But many of these retirees don’t just retire and stay put.
Many relocate to make retirement the best years of their lives – and there are several benefits in doing so.
Here are 5 reasons why relocating to Hungary for retirement is a smart move:
1. Low cost of living
Selected as one of the top 9 European retirement destinations by CNBC, Hungary’s low cost of living is a big attraction for many retirees as it is possible to enjoy a lifestyle similar to many Western European countries at a 50-60% lower cost – especially if you live outside the capital, Budapest.
Imagine how amazing it would be to lead a much more comfortable lifestyle and to be able to afford many of the things and experiences that you previously had to forgo.
2. Favorable location
Hungary is located in the heart of Europe and it is easily reached due to its excellent transportation connection to most European countries – so visiting friends & family in the Netherlands or inviting them over is really easy and affordable. Also, as Hungary is part of the EU, relocation is not complicated at all.
3. Quality, affordable medical services
The Hungarian healthcare system is similar to many other EU nations and provides quality medical care, at lower costs than some of its EU counterparts.
4. Stable country, good investment potential
Relocating to Hungary for retirement is not only a great decision from a lifestyle perspective, but it’s also a smart one, for several reasons. It’s not only one of the safest European countries, but it also has a stable political outlook and a growing economy – giving peace of mind to residents and expats as well.
But what makes relocation to Hungary a superior choice compared to other countries is this: the investment potential. Real estate prices are expected to increase in the upcoming years – so even if you decide to move back later, making a prosperous financial exit is very likely.
5. Spa & wellbeing, culture, community
There are many amenities in Hungary to support an enjoyable lifestyle. Whether it’s spas, museums, theaters, live music, hiking trails, golf courses or something else that you plan to enjoy in your retirement, Hungary has a lot to offer.
As Hungarians are considered friendly and with lots of expats living in the country, there are plenty of opportunities for socialization. As Hungary is one of the top 20 English-speaking countries, communicating with the local people shouldn’t be an issue.
If you prefer to socialize with other retirees, you may want to move to an active adult community.
While the idea of moving may seem stressful, the reality doesn’t have to be. In fact, it can be quite exciting! After all, you’re embarking on a new adventure, getting ready to live life the way you want.
