"Expats considering retiring in Beijing should be prepared for the city's high cost of living, especially for rent and food. It is important to research housing options and learn about the local markets to understand the best places to purchase quality food. Beijing has a harsh climate with long, cold winters, so those retiring should consider investing in quality insulation and heating to stay comfortable. With a population of over 21 million people, Beijing is a densely-populated city and one should research the various neighborhoods available to determine the best location to live. Additionally, it is important to take into account the city's air quality, which can be quite poor; be prepared to buy air masks if needed. Retirement in Beijing also requires a visa, so it is important to start the visa process early, exploring the requirements and paperwork needed. Taking the time to research and prepare for Beijing can ensure a smooth transition when relocating," said a member in Beijing, China, China.
