Expat Destination Vienna
Most expats headed for Austria settle in Vienna, the capital city with almost 1.8 million inhabitants. With a populace of more than 2.5 million, the Vienna metropolitan region accounts for over a quarter of Austria’s total population. The combined metropolitan region of Vienna and nearby Bratislava in Slovakia, often referred to as Twin City, has over 3 million inhabitants.
Your move to Vienna will take you not only to the political, but also to the cultural and economic center of the country. Millions of tourists visiting the city every year as well as a significant expat and immigrant population make Austria’s capital an exciting place, which combines traditional Viennese culture with an international flair.
The latter is aided by the many international organizations that have chosen Vienna for their regional headquarters: Organizations like the UN, OPEC and IAEA, to name but a few, are behind many an expat’s move to Austria. Vienna is also among the top 3 destinations worldwide for international congresses and conventions.
Most newcomers to Vienna enjoy the benefits that come with living in a city which continually features in the top ten for quality of life in surveys conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit or Monocle. In the Mercer Quality of Life Survey, Vienna ranked first for three consecutive years — a result that may well convince people who are toying with the idea of moving to Austria.
