We’d like to share with you a detailed picture of life abroad across all continents: why people relocate, what their daily life is like, and how satisfied they are.

Expat Insider is among the biggest surveys worldwide to inquire into the living situation and happiness of expatriates. After the success of the 2014 edition, we have again asked 14,000 respondents from 195 countries and overseas territories a range of questions on life abroad.

Explore our detailed results below!

Where do expats enjoy the best quality of living? Which countries are ideal for raising children? Where can expats make the most of their budget?

Our country rankings list the best (and worst) among 64 destinations across the globe, focusing on essential topics: quality of life, ease of settling in, working abroad, family life, and personal finance. We also compare the most popular destinations for expat women vs. men.

For 22 of the top destinations with the highest number of survey respondents, we provide in-depth country profiles, as featured below. Read on and find out what expatriate life in your dream destination, from Austria to New Zealand to the USA, is actually like!

Similar to profiling various destinations in the country reports, we also wanted to portray the people opting for a new life abroad.

Did you know, for example, that Russians predominantly move abroad to pursue academic goals? That British expats are particularly likely to leave their home country behind forever? Or that Australians and US expats alike tend to give the cost of living abroad particular consideration?
