What do I need to know before retiring in Leiden?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Leiden, they said...
"hmmm difficult. Actually nothing in tone of warning... just DO IT! It's a great place," remarked another expat in Leiden, Netherlands.
"Before retiring in Leiden, expats should be aware of the cost of living, which is higher than the national average. They should also research the local housing market to find a suitable place to live. Additionally, expats should familiarize themselves with the local healthcare system and the availability of medical services. It is also important to understand the local culture and customs, as well as the language, to ensure a smooth transition. Finally, expats should research the local job market to find out what opportunities are available for those who wish to continue working after retirement," said a member in Leiden, The Netherlands.
