What do I need to know before moving to Penzance?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Penzance, they said:
"Penzance is a small town in Cornwall, UK, located on the south coast of England. It is known for its mild climate, stunning coastal scenery, and vibrant arts and culture scene. Expats should be aware that the cost of living in Penzance is higher than the UK average, and that the town is quite remote, so access to amenities and services may be limited. It is important to research the local area before moving to Penzance, as there are many small villages and hamlets in the area that may be more suitable for expats. Additionally, expats should be aware that the local economy is largely based on tourism, so job opportunities may be seasonal," replied a member in Penzance.
