‘Moving Abroad’

Moving Abroad?

According to the BBC, roughly one in ten Brits live outside the United Kingdom. In 2016, 339,000 people left the UK compared with 299,000 in 2015, according to data collected by the University of Oxford Migration Observatory. People seeking a fresh start overseas list better quality of life, career progression, family ties, economic stability, lifestyle change and politics as reasons for moving abroad. ABC Removals have put together a list of the top 10 places to move abroad in 2018. If you’re thinking of heading for new shores, read on for some relocation inspiration.

Canada

When it comes to quality of life, Canada tops the charts. According to U.S. News & World Report 2018 Best Countries list, the North American nation is the number one choice for a better quality of life, factoring in job market, affordability, economic stability, suitability for families, income equality, political stability, safety, health and education. The report, compiled by University of Pennsylvania and global consumer rights firm BAV Consulting, measured 80 nations, scoring them on a set of 65 different attributes, ranging from levels of corruption to gender equality.

Canada also ranks in the top tens for being business friendly, modernity, entrepreneurship, retirees, raising a family, equality and green living. Canada is renowned for its friendliness, according to Forbes and, having been affected by the 2008 financial crisis to a much lesser extent that its neighbour, offers plenty of opportunities for work and business growth. For those who love nature, the outdoors and are looking for a more friendly vibe, Canada is a great option for heading overseas.
