Why do expats like Antwerp

Expats love being based in Antwerp. Due to the social politics, Belgium has a good work-life balance and especially the people in Antwerp you can call “Bon-vivant” or as they claim themselves “bourgondiers”. 

The Medieval settlement of Antwerp gets his name from the Celtic word “Ando verpis”, Which means throwing land against the river bank. But, a lot of citizens of Antwerp will tell you a whole different story from where Antwerp gets his name. That story is just one of the many legends that you can find in Antwerp. Book a tour around the city by some amazing tour guides such as Tanguy Ottomer and discover some of the lucrative and sometimes scary myths that go around the city.

Antwerp was very well preserved through all the years and still has structures that go way back in time. Although of strategic importance due to the part, Antwerp has survived many foreign settlements and conquerors. 

The symbol and most important building of Antwerp must be the impressive Cathedral Of Our Lady in the city center. It was built between 1352 and 1521 on the grounds of a previous church which you can see when visiting the cathedral for a small fee. When walking in the cathedral, you will have a better idea about the history that this magnificent city stores. In the cathedral, you can find some of the most precious paintings and artwork by the Flemish classics such as Rubens, Van Dyck, Jordaen, etc.

Is Antwerp the right move? A deep dive into life in Belgium's Diamond City

Antwerp offers expats an appealing mix of affordability, cultural richness, and strong job prospects, particularly through its bustling port. While housing remains reasonably priced and public transport comprehensive, newcomers face challenges like Europe's highest tax rates and potential language barriers with Dutch being predominant. The city shines with its multicultural tolerance, outdoor lifestyle, and vibrant entertainment scene, though winter months bring limited daylight and frequent rain. Despite infrastructure quirks and housing complexities, Antwerp's ranking among the world's fastest-growing cities reflects its rising appeal for international residents.
