As a Pole and a 65-year-old, almost retired person, I advise... Choose a city in Poland smaller than even Gdańsk for a peaceful life in retirement - there will be everything a retiree needs for a peaceful and prosperous life. In the vicinity of Gdańsk there are, for example: Starogard Gdański, Wejcherowo, Grudziąc etc. (There, all prices should be divided by two and it is... less crowded.) Generally, it is the tourist attractiveness of a city or place that drives prices. This is the case all over the world. And in general - a person who wants to relax should settle in the Polish countryside. Warmest regards.

Home for first 21 years of my life. Poland developed massively in last 20 or even 10 years, capital Warsaw was completely destroyed during World War 2 and many cities. Currently still safe as no illegal migration at least yet compared to France or UK migration issues. Winter daylight time is terrible sunset around 4pm wet, dark, cold not fun could be depressing . Anywhere between May-Sep included great place to see and explore especially those who are interested in history and especially in second World War history. To visit for even few months I would definitely recommend, I'm coming back visiting family in summer frequently and it's lovely. For year round weather definitely Asia or some countries in South / Central America.

Poles are similar to Germans or Scandinavians. We need a while to convince ourselves of someone. It is a cultural issue in this part of Europe. Especially for Americans, it can be strange at first, because everyone is busy with their own things and doesn't pay attention to others. Americans are always loud, rather smiling, and like to chat people up on the street. In Europe, it is different. In addition, the Poles have been through a lot (wars, occupations, communism), so they are closed-minded at first - in the past, a stranger meant death, and danger. It takes patience, a smile, and openness - then Poles open up - we need time to trust a stranger. But when we make sure that we can trust someone and a relationship develops, you can find your best friend in the Pole.

There are some very nice and very affordable cities in the interior of Poland that aren't as popular as the big tourist draw cities. But Poland has an extensive train system and you can visit all the touristy cities while avoiding the crowds and higher costs living in them fulltime. Another plus for Americans is there was an agreement signed in the early 90's between the U.S. and Poland that allows Americans to stay there indefinitely. The requirement is every 90 days you have to cross the international border and return. The catch is since the advent of the Schengen Zone you can't cross over into countries in that zone without being in violation of those rules. So you've either got to cross into non-Schengen Ukraine or fly to a country not in the Schengen Zone like Georgia or the U.K. Fortunately Poland is very well connected to Europe with discounted airlines and flights are short and cheap. Personally I can see staying there 6 months out of the year then heading to the southern hemisphere during Poland's winter. Not really worried about Putin attacking NATO countries.

$2500 for a couple in Gdańsk is a lower end budget. Would get you through nice vacation but in the longer run would be a tad limiting once you want to travel extensively, own a car or rent a nicer/bigger apartment. And that's assuming your health insurance covers the necessary expenses.

I live in Warsaw Poland on a part time bases. It seems that $2500 a month is the minimum to maintain comfortable lifestyle without any excesses. The weather sucks 6 months out of the year. Retiring here for non EU citizens is not easy from visa/residence permit perspective. As you mentioned there is no retirement visa so in order to get a residence permit one has to either be employed, go to school or start a business. It is not what I envision myself doing in retirement.

Trust me, weather in Poland does not suck. You just need to live in Chicago to understand what is terrible weather. Poland is very warm, even during the winter in Warsaw the snow often melts and rarely goes below zero Celsius, which is amazing. Warsaw reminds me of NYC or DC winter, which is extremely mild by North American standards. Also you can walk everywhere in Warsaw, sooooo many great cheap restaurants, some people consider Praha a bad neighborhood, but those people haven't seen Philly or Baltimore yet. Warsaw is beautiful. My only concern is that the Uber drivers are n-u-t-z-.

Dan: Love these breakdowns, as always!! I wonder if you might ever consider adding in health insurance (average costs maybe $200 - $400 per month) and miscellaneous items, to make the monthly spending amounts a little closer to most people’s reality? I realize of course medical insurance and miscellaneous would differ a lot from person to person, but by leaving these out, i wonder if more inexperienced or less financially savvy people might be seriously underestimating how much it costs to live?

Great question @lailaatallah1857, I have one report where I explain what I do about health care and another where I show you how I search for health insurance, and a third report sharing which one I decided to finally buy. What I do about health care: vagabondbuddha.com/two-biggest-risks-of-retiring-early-overseas/ Report where I search for health insurance: vagabondbuddha.com/best-health-insurance-for-ex-pats-in-philippines/ Here is the Health Insurance I bought (and scams to avoid): kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zp3Id5J4eLGJgdk By the way, once you search for health care you will start seeing more offers for health insurance and travelers insurance when you are online. Health insurance is one of the most dynamic or changing industries in the travel world because so many people around the world are deciding to live or retire outside their home country. So do a search every year before you renew to make sure you have the best available for your personal circumstances because new ones come out every few months. Thanks for asking so I could answer this for many people! Dan

I will be going to Gdansk in a week. Why ? It' is city of my childhood.Gdansk can be a tourist trap. I suggest you rent a car and get out of the city. An hour or two drive you will find cute towns with lower costs and beautiful scenery. Bring a tent. Majority of forests are state owned so you can enjoy hiking picking blueberries and mushrooms. A lot of lakes with resorts. If that floats your boat Poland has lakes region called Mazuria. You could drive or take train to city called Olsztyn.

Yes, we would be very grateful if you did not call us Eastern Europe. Poland is in Central Europe, not Eastern Europe: geographically and mentally. The Iron Curtain fell more than 30 years ago, and it really is high time to understand that that division of Europe no longer exists. The geographical Centre of Europe is in Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine or in the east of Poland (depending on what method of measuring is used). East Europe means for us Russia. If you say that Poland is an Eastern European country then you are insulting Poles with this statement. East is Russia and other countries to the east. And we certainly do not want to be associated in any way with this barbaric country.

@@Mario-xr3jo Which media? Relying only on the media, which always shows only an event, does not make you know the truth and have the full picture. Generalizing is a terrible thing. Besides, the US is the most racist country in the world, so that's no argument. What seems racism to you may not be racism to others, because you are looking at something from your point of view, from your experiences, while elsewhere people have not had such experiences and have a completely different perception of the world. Another thing is how illegal immigrants behave. The fact that people in Poland are afraid of illegal immigrants from Africa or Muslim countries, for example, is a result of what we see in countries like the UK, Germany, France or Norway. People are afraid to go out on the streets in these countries because there is so much crime there now. Immigrants who are culturally different from us don't want to work, learn our language, assimilate but they want all the welfare benefits. Is this not the case in the US? After all, this is the main axis of the US presidential campaign. Don't come to us - we don't really need people here who are selfish and unable to go beyond their narrow thinking, beyond their bubble and are unable to understand that there are a lot of other things going on in the world and people see things in a different way than you do.

Same with showers, shower hoses are too easy to break, so extra service for the landlord. American life is always about being labor-less since labor is expensive

@@rickbold9337 War zone in Poland. It must be a joke. People enjoy their life, run business, the big corporations are everywhere in Poland. Every middle sized town has industrial area, where you can find factories. Great fast roads, superb public communication, bus and trains, basically you don't need a car. War , good joke.

Why you didn't mention that Poland also gave men right to vote at the same time? Peasants were not allowed to vote and Poland was under occupation for 123 years, so we didn't create any state laws before?
