"Before retiring in Johannesburg, expats should be aware of the cost of living, which is higher than in many other parts of the country. It is also important to research the safety and security situation in the area, as crime rates are higher than in other parts of the country.

Finally, expats should research the availability of healthcare and other services in the area, to ensure they have access to the necessary resources," said a member in Johannesburg, South Africa.
