I am contemplating moving to a country that offers a more peaceful and productive environment. The ongoing challenges and distractions in my current area, such as crime and the high costs associated with education, are motivating this decision. I am looking for a place where I can flourish in a tranquil setting. Could someone offer advice on where others with similar circumstances have successfully relocated? Additionally, I would appreciate any recommendations for areas that are recognized for offering affordable educational opportunities and a high quality of life. I don’t want to live here anymore.

    Belgium has socialised higher education and healthcare. A western quality of life. Amongst the lowest of gini-indexes of income disparity (1), so if you work little or much, absent minded or hard, all reach about the same result.

    As long as you stay away from the cities, violence is very rare.

        Very much so (1). Currently, 27% of people with Belgian nationality are immigrant (2). If we look at the residents, people living in Belgium, this number would be even higher.

          I think I’m surprised by that because it’s such a small country

          Fuck me, I was mixing it up with Luxembourg
