When we asked people why foreigners move to France, they responded...

"The appeal of France to expats is largely due to its relaxed lifestyle, rich culture, and excellent infrastructure. Its long-standing reputation as a haven for artists and its sophisticated cities and stunning countryside provide endless opportunities for exploration and inspiration. From its stunning natural landscapes to its vibrant and diverse cities, France offers plenty of attractions that make it an attractive destination for expats. The high standard of living, great educational opportunities, and excellent healthcare system mean that expats can feel secure in the knowledge that they can enjoy France’s unique atmosphere and high quality of life. Additionally, the country's robust social security system and extensive job market open a wealth of opportunities for those looking to relocate. With its world-class culture, cuisine, and art, France has something for everyone, making it an ideal place for expats to call home," said a member in France.
