Thinking about Hungary

7 years ago

Greetings, szevusztok:
I am an American retiring from teaching in three years. I am interested in spending a lot of time in Hungary after retirement. I would like to ask expats and Hungarian people about the actual conditions of living in Hungary these days and some specific questions.
A little about me:
I am in my fifties retiring early in three years.
I have applied for Hungarian citizenship through descent, my father is a Hungarian immigrant and was still a Hungarian citizen when I was born.
I have been to Hungary quite a few times, including last year.
I can speak a fair amount of Hungarian and would like to learn more.
My monthly income in retirement will be about $3,500.
Questions:
Will my income be enough to live comfortably in Hungary, in Budapest or in a smaller town?
Where are some good places to live?
How much would renting a one bedroom flat cost in different parts of Budapest or smaller cities; i.e. Szeged, Keszthely, Eger?
How do Hungarians relate to expats?
How do people work out health care?
What are the benefits and disadvantages to living in Hungary these days?
Thank you/ koszonom szepen!
