Those who plan on moving to Brussels will find a beautiful cosmopolitan city in the heart of the European Union (EU). Belgium’s capital has become a popular expatriate destination due to the high quality of life it inspires, its mild climate and its position in relation to the rest of Europe.

This city houses over 2000 foreign companies and hosts more than 1000 business conferences on an annual basis, making it a popular place for professionals looking to work abroad.

With wonderful top-class eateries, fantastic shopping, top quality healthcare and a wealth of historical sites, anyone working and living in Brussels will enjoy its big city buzz. As the capital of the EU, Brussels has a dynamic, international atmosphere fuelled by expatriates and diplomats from all over the continent.

The modern, well-organised and affordable public transport system complete with a metro, trams and buses makes it easy for anyone to navigate around this city.
 
The downtown city centre is an invigorating area to find housing, and ironically, can be cheaper than the communities on the fringe of the city.

It’s important to note that Brussels is expensive, especially if you don’t have the benefit of a diplomatic budget behind you.
