Zakynthos (Town) is a small town of roughly 11,000 people on an island in Greece. The climate is mediterranean. It has a lively, popular feel and is considered very safe. A typical month of living costs around $1,400. Healthcare is strong, and the internet is generally reliable. People come here for swimming, surfing, diving.
Entro il 2029 qui è atteso un cambiamento concreto: ampliamento del terminal di zante (piano fraport). È un’isola raggiungibile ogni giorno, e questo cambia molto per chi ci vive tutto l’anno. Gli affitti sono saliti di circa il 56% in cinque anni: chi arriva oggi non trova i prezzi di cui ha letto.
