What do I need to know before moving to Amalfi Coast?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Amalfi Coast, they said:
"Expats moving to the Amalfi Coast should be aware that the cost of living can be high, particularly in popular tourist areas. Housing options may be limited, and it is essential to research the rental market and secure accommodation before arrival. The Amalfi Coast is known for its narrow, winding roads, so driving can be challenging, and public transportation may be a more convenient option. Learning Italian is highly recommended, as many locals may not speak English fluently. Expats should familiarize themselves with Italian customs and etiquette to integrate more easily into the local community. Healthcare in Italy is generally of a high standard, but it is essential to have comprehensive health insurance. Finally, expats should be prepared for a slower pace of life and a strong emphasis on family and social connections in the Amalfi Coast," remarked one expat in Amalfi Coast, Italy.
