Survey Finds the Expat Life in Spain is Great for Wealth, Health, and
Happiness

A new survey by international real estate company MoveHub
has discovered that moving to another country such as Spain due to the
climate can really benefit your wallet, your body and your mind. They
polled 1,000 people from across the UK, half of whom were expats and half that
had never lived abroad. Their polling found that 69% of the people that had
lived abroad would describe their health as being good or better. On the other
hand only 58% of the people who never lived abroad could say the same.
Around 40%, compared to the 28% of people who were, or had
been, expats said that they felt they earned a good salary. All of these
benefits spread to happiness too. 63% of expats felt that they were happy or
very happy. This was higher than the 53% of non-expats.
The study by MoveHub is just the latest sign that living in
another country can lead to a lot of benefits. Other surveys have suggested
this too. In fact there are barely any drawbacks at all. Expats are better
educated, are more open-minded and willing to embrace another culture, and find
themselves part of wide and varied social circles. As long as they do a little
research before they move anyway.
Moving to Spain
is a great way to experience these benefits and more. Spain has a great climate
and a friendly culture, as well as the fantastic Mediterranean diet. Spain has
quickly become the ideal choice for British and Irish people who want to try
living in another country.
Spain is also currently in the middle of recovering their
economy and property market. This means that it’s a great choice for people as
they are more likely to find themselves living the good life experienced by
expats in Spain.
