Welcome to the forum.

As a starting point, try for living costs.

A Google search should come up with salary needs etc.

Perhaps read other posts here too.

Hey stumpy,

Thank you. I鈥檝e made many search online, but information are different from eachother. So nothing is like to listen to the other people鈥檚 real life experiences. Plus, here on the forum, there is no enough up to date info about that topic. Do you live in Villach?

Austria is one of the safest countries in Europe so ideal to bring up a family. You are paid 14 months in Austria, double pay in the Summer and double pay in at Christmas.

In Austria, you can get buy with just English in larger and tourist towns. But if you try and make an effort to speak German they are more welcoming but if they see you struggle they more than likely switch to English.

I live in Lower Austria in a small town and I get by without speaking German although I do understand it.

Food shopping is the hardest thing you will find, so I would get to know the words. There are some good books out there.

Thank you. Sorry for bothering again. I found some info over numeo, but would like to consult you also. What do you think of what the proper salary range which will be enough for a family of three ( with a baby) for a balanced life, with no hussle?

You cover alot of territory with your questions.聽 聽Your costs of living are 20%+ lower than in a bigger Austrian city... but Villach has

Less to offer.聽 聽Your wife should investigate Deutsch lessons but the dialect is different vs. GERMANY.聽 聽Expect quiet living,聽 polite people and curiously backward modes of communication... face-to-face is the MO.聽 In your professional environment, English is the language of business, not so for those living at home .

Best

Thank you very much for all the info. I wish you the best.

@Gahatley

thank very much for all the info Gahatley. Yes, me and my wife are very eager to learn German. We would love to adopt to society asap. But for now my main concern is if my salary as a senior engineer聽 will be enough to live well in Villach.

Hi I would be happy to answer all your questions if needed. I live in Austria since I was born and I am working as a tax adviser and payroll accountant. So I can also help you with minimum age and what to expect in certain areas and of course the cost of living.

Feel free to write me if you need any help
