Georgia · temperate

🌍

Tbilisi is a big city of roughly 1,100,000 people near the mountains in Georgia. The climate is temperate. It keeps a balanced mix of locals and visitors and is considered very safe. A typical month of living costs around $1,150. Healthcare is reasonable, and the internet is fast enough for full-time remote work. People come here for food and eating out, art and culture, nightlife.

Entro il 2031 qui è atteso un cambiamento concreto: ampliamento dell’aeroporto di tbilisi a 10 milioni di passeggeri. Gli affitti sono saliti di circa il 70% in cinque anni: chi arriva oggi non trova i prezzi di cui ha letto. Il reddito prodotto all’estero in genere non viene tassato qui.
