We are Promoting Romania, the best Place to retire and live comfortable for less.

The Cost of Living in Romania is very cheap compared in Europe!

Housing very affordable with exception in Bucharest

Despite bad news Romania is a very safe Country in Europe.

There are many choices you have to retire in Romania

It’s a very cheap country. Compared to Europe, the US, Canada and Australia, Romania is very cheap. You can see my cost of living details here, as well as my Cost of Living in Romania article to get a better view of pricing. But to keep it simple, for 1 US Dollar, you could buy here three baguettes or one kilo of tomatoes (during the summer) or a hamburger. CHEAP!

Housing / rent is cheap. If you don’t want to live in Bucharest (the capital), then you can buy a one room apartment for as low as $33,000. Rent for something similar would go as low as $200 per month. Bucharest is more expensive, though. But generally, housing is cheap in the country, getting even cheaper in smaller cities or villages.

Romania is a safe country. Despite what you might believe you know, Romania is a pretty safe country. You won’t get robbed, kidnapped or murdered here. People are not normally carrying guns and although we do have some petty crimes, the country is really safe and has almost zero gun-related violence.

Most of the people speak English. It’s the main foreign language taught in schools and most of the city population can speak and understand English. Maybe you won’t be able to start a philosophical conversation with all Romanians (in English), but small talk would be OK.

Movies are not dubbed. Not really the biggest reason to move to Romania, but all English movies have subtitles and are not dubbed. So you won’t have any trouble understanding Home Alone 1 and 2 every year around Christmas (you’ll see that Home Alone is broadcasted every year here!).

You can easily walk or ride a bike to get anywhere. Say goodbye to fuel costs if you decide to Retire in Romania. Except for Bucharest and a few of the other big cities, our cities are small and you can easily ride a bike or walk.

You can live in one of the most underrated cities in Romania – Drobeta Turnu Severin – and everything is withing walking distance. We only drive about twice per month to stock up on groceries from one of the multiple hypermarkets available here.

Romanian food is delicious. Mostly based on pork (beef is rarely consumed here), Romanian food is really delicious and extremely easy to prepare. Not the healthiest in the world, but it sure tastes good and the shopping basket won’t ruin your budget.

Romanians love foreigners. And I’m not talking here about cheap girls who like foreigner males from pretty obvious reasons. I’m talking about your regular Romanian who would be extremely pleased to meet a foreigner. Most of us (like all Eastern Europeans, probably) still have the American Dream, so meeting somebody from the US would be extremely fascinating. Also, people say that Romanians are great hosts – no matter if you’re from the US or any other country.

Romania is beautiful. The Romanian villages are as raw as possible as technology hasn’t made it’s way there completely. We have 7 Unesco World Heritage sites, the best preserved delta in Europe, the largest rock sculpture in Europe (a 20 minutes ride from my city, so make sure to leave a sign if you visit) and much, much more. There hasn’t been a single person visiting from abroad that wasn’t blown away with the beauty of Romania.

Private health care options are cheap. Although you’ll find the “health” part at the cons below, private health care is really cheap here. A visit to the doctor can be as low as $20 (but usually around $30) and most of the private hospitals/clinics are very modern.

The pace of life is slower. In most of the cities (except for Bucharest and other few big cities like Cluj, Timisoara, Iasi), everything happens at a slower pace. Everything is nearby and people have more time to chill. For somebody coming from a busy city, living in Romania would probably be like a calming break in a silent cabin in the woods. In my city for example, there is very little traffic after 10 PM.

You can still get a lot of food from farmer markets. As close as it can get to eating organic at killer prices. Many of the people selling in the farmers markets are not using chemical fertilizers, but they don’t charge extra for that.
