It is also important to consider the language barrier, as most people in Munich speak German. Additionally, it is important to research the visa requirements for retirees, as well as the tax implications of living in Germany. Finally, it is important to familiarize yourself with the culture and customs of Munich, as this will help you to integrate into the local community," wrote a member who made the move to Munich, Germany.
