What do I need to know before moving to Olten?

"Olten is a city in Switzerland, situated between the cities of Zurich, Bern and Basel. The city has a population of approximately 16,000 people and is known for its beautiful landscapes and historical sites. The main language spoken in Olten is German, however English is also widely spoken. Olten is well connected by road, rail and air, and is serviced by regular regional buses as well as international trains. The city is home to a number of restaurants, shops, museums, parks and leisure facilities. When moving to Olten you should bear in mind the cost of living is relatively high due to the city's location and high salaries. Olten is known for its safe and friendly atmosphere, and its welcoming attitude towards newcomers. The city is a great choice for those looking to experience the beauty and culture of Switzerland, while still having the convenience of modern amenities and connections to the larger cities," remarked another expat in Olten, Switzerland.

"Keep in mind: - There is no free choice of school for your children, unless you are willing and able to pay for (expensive) private schools. Your children will usually go to school in the quarter you live. If you have specific school preferences for your kids, take this into consideration in the neighborhood choice. - Not only property prices vary highly between city and countryside, and between the various cantons. Also taxes and costs for (mandatory!) health insurance may vary a lot. Example: the canton of Zug may sound very attractive at first sight, because of the extremely low taxes. You'll quickly find out that this is (more than) compensated by prices for housing. Check out tax and health insurance rates at www.comparis.ch," said a member in Olten, Switzerland.
