If you are thinking about moving to Switzerland, cost of living in probably a key consideration. Expats commented about the cost of housing...

"About the same as in the San Francisco Bay Area. A nice small (100 sq. meters) ski chalet is about USD 450,000. I think that's because it is in a tourist area. I know that some places of comparable size are less expensive in Interlaken," remarked another expat in Wengen, Switzerland.

"Property is expensive, whether you buy or rent. In the cities of Zurich, Geneva, Basel and Bern, prices can be astronomic," said a member in Olten, Switzerland.
