I had a friend from Iceland in college who moved to the US for school- and I’ve never met a more stable and well spoken, smart man. Also politically it sounds like Iceland cares for its people unlike the US. Plus he said each student in Iceland becomes fluent in several languages by the time they graduate Highschool (or at least at the level where they could communicate in that language decently)

10 reasons not to move to Iceland: 1. The housing market is so crowded if one studio apartment is advertised, it gets 400 applications and it is extremely expensive. 2. The healthcare system has collapsed and just getting appointment at doctor is often weeks when it used to be few days. There is so much stress on healthcare workers, they just quit. 3 The police force is also overloaded with subjects and do not seem to care about people when something is stolen. 4. Though it is still safe, it is less safer than before. 5. The food is expensive. 6. The weather is not the best and very often windy and cold. 7. There are already 12.000 or more men in the country than women (3-4%) so the gender difference is not balanced and it is almost only due to immigration. 8. It has become less welcoming and more xenophobic in recent years. 9. During the winter the days become dark very early and sunlight is limited. 10. It is very difficult to become sustainable and try to grow food unless you get yourself a good greenhouse and equipment which is expensive as everything. I can mention many more but i guess Iceland is just a little tribe in the north and if everyone wants to move there it doesn't stay as good as everyone thinks.

People in iceland are the most polite, literate and most well spoken folks I have ever met in my life. Before you even dabble moving to iceland, just know that the most annoying thing Icelanders do not like to hear when they call to a business place is "eg tala ekki islensku". Lots of foreigners who stay in iceland are learning icelandic and some folks are not even trying to learn icelandic and they are just there to get a paycheck and use english as their primary language of communication. While not necessary to learn icelandic to get a job, its important to know that is their national language and if you plan on getting a professional job in Iceland that will pay a lot more, you best know some basic/mid level icelandic as some business discussions are done in icelandic and english. If you work for a company that is owned by a danish company, expect to hear icelandic/danish and english across the room. Overall, iceland is the most ideal place to raise a child. Been there so many times and have family of kin that kids were rarely on electronics. They were either reading or watching something on tv that is actually educational. Rarely, cartoons were only on for younger kids.

I can think of another reason to move to Iceland - politics! The Government in Iceland takes no prisoners when it comes to the job of government. During the global financial crash of 2008, the Prime Minister resigned, and the replacement Government put the bankers responsible on trial. When the US Government came knocking to find out what was going on, the Icelandic Government told them to "go forth and multiply"!

The government here is just as much shit as elsewhere. When ministers have resigned bacause of big scandals they're usually back within a year. Maybe in another ministry but then later even in the same they resigned from. Like our current prime minister that was a minister of financial affairs and had accounts in Tortola Islands.

I'm 78 year old Icelander and I can agree with your comment because I as an elder person who have paid taxes and pension fee to the community have experienced the same problem in the health care, but we can not control the time of the sunrise and sunset but I think the the main reason is too many reputes who came to our country and were not willing to work nor align with our community just get the benefit of our social service. We welcome people who want work and get better life like the 30 thousand Polish and other eastern Europeans who have immigrated in the last 20 years.

For many non-Scandinavians, Scandinavia is treated like a "theme park" (like Disneyland or something), where anyone can go to and live out your fantasies. For some reason, non-Europeans (even many southern Europeans) have this fantasy about what they think it would be like to live in a Scandinavian country. The media has falsely built them up into some kind of a mystical utopian "elvish paradise," where all the people are blond and beautiful, and everyone lives in perfect harmony, with nature and each other. That image is false and was mostly built up by leftists trying to promote the "socialist ideal," that Scandinavia never was (as well as by people who just like to fantasize about blond women. Why is it that people like blond women so much? I can't figure it out). Why don't you have enough ethnic and national pride to try and build up your own people and country instead of trying to appropriate another. You never actually will appropriate it but will, eventually, change it become what you thought you left.

Then you have super high shadow taxes on Gasoline, travel tax, etc. I'd say the people of Iceland are good bondsmen.

To those of you who think all your problems will be solved by emmigrating to Iceland, think again. Even if you make every effort to integrate, you will never feel completely a part of Icelandic society. It's not because Icelanders are racist or because you didn't try hard to integrate. In European ethnic states, non-natives WILL ALWAYS be considered foriegners. Even your children and grandchildren. This will cause resentment among non native immigrants, especially the 2nd generation, and will feed an inferiority complex that will last for generations. These minority groups will then try to force acceptance by claiming systemic racism and demand government intervention (often financial, racial quotas, etc.). Instead of looking to escape your own native land, then try to change the country you've moved to, why not just make your native land the way you want it to be?

Single individuals are not seen as a threat, especially when you've made an effort. Just wait. How do I know? Because the exact same thing has alreayd happened in other Scandinavian countries, that were once like Iceland. Also, if you remain in Iceland and have children, they likely won't feel the same. They'll feel as I described above and will always blame "systemic racism" when in reality, it's just a systemic inferiority complex.

Here's a few reasons not to move there: Volcanoes. Health care is expensive, they do not have free health care like Europe, you pay for Everything. Food is expensive. Internet service is spotty. Volcanoes. It's freaking cold all the time, even in summer. The sun is out past midnight during summer months, and hardly out at all during the winter. If the freezing 50 mph winds don't kill you, the ocean waves will. Volcanoes. There is only one city, the rest is wide open rural, no trees, And if you're unemployed, you'll be eating a lot of sheeps head, cause chicken is as expensive as filet minon. On one hand, getting laid is easy, as they're into having sex on the first meeting but on the other hand everyone there is related to each other and you have to check your family background before you start breeding. If you have even the slightest criminal background, even a simple DWI, you ain't living here. If you don't have a good job already lined up, like in thermodynamics, you ain't living here. The national sport is reading.

"If you have even the slightest criminal background, even a simple DWI, you ain't living here. The national sport is reading." How are those reasons to not move there, exactly? Is that bad to you? On one hand, the first one makes the country safer and a nicer place to live in, and the second one, I doubt that's true, but even if, that really just gives the idea the people are educated and have fine knowledge.

Hello there, I was wondering, if I can share with you the most important thing ever before in life. God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. Then He was put into a tomb for 3 days, after that Abba Father raised Jesus to life.He appeared to people, and went back to heaven. We all must sincerely receive Jesus into our life to be God's child. John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name" Will you today genuinely by faith-- receive Jesus into your life for salvation?
