Stockholm is a mid-sized city of roughly 980,000 people right by the sea in Sweden. The climate is cold. It has a lively, popular feel and is considered very safe. A typical month of living costs around $2,400. Healthcare is strong, and the internet is fast enough for full-time remote work. People come here for art and culture, food and eating out, live music.
Il servizio sanitario pubblico (5/5) è più solido del privato: qui l’assicurazione è un extra, non una necessità.
