Good place to live in Poland (if you want to move on)?

You'd need to provide some information about yourself to get a good answer. Where are you from? What job are you considering? Where are you planning to move to? Does your spouse have a profession? How old is your kid? Do any of you speak Polish? How old are you and what are your long-term goals, especially in terms of saving for a home, retirement and your kid's education? Are you planning on having more children? How long do you plan to stay in Poland? And what do you mean by "comfortable"? Different people define that in radically different ways.

And why, specifically, Poland? Poland is not a particularly attractive country for immigrants because wages are low, cost of living relative to wages is high, especially for foreigners, and savings potential is very, very low, which is usually the deal-breaker. Savings potential is usually the most important financial criterion when seeking work in another country.

Yes, it's a good salary in Poland.

And Poland is a great place to live. Are you coming to Warsaw?

That's highly misleading statement because it depends on individual.

I suppose you did leave in order to become an economic migrant working night shifts in a factory in provincial England. The person who's asking is a professional person and has obviously weighed up the pros and cons, has been offered a decent salary from Poland (and we don't know his or her situation at home) and has considered accommodation and schooling.

It's obvious that there was nothing in Poland for you, however for the person who's asked the question, it may be a good step. Not everyone (as you well know) has a huge range of choices. Even if the poster has several options, the others may be less interesting.

And yes, Poland is a great place to live.

Change "I suppose" To "I lie" and it would be correct as you well know I wrote many times why I left and what I do in England.


I wouldn't call it a decent salary, you also forget that he has a family to support.


You wish they paid you for lying don't you?


Of course it is, it finally has a great government.

How old is your son? The younger the better. I presume he doesn't speak any Polish so it will be quite a struggle for him at first. Polish schools do not provide any language support or Polish classes for foreign students and Polish is not an easy language to just 'pick up' unless you're a speaker of another Slavic language, that helps a bit.

You can survive on 6,000 if you budget really carefully but you will by no means be 'comfortable'. 8,000 net would be a lot better but as Dominic says you will struggle to save anything out of it. There is really no point in leaving your homeland to struggle for survival in a foreign country unless you have a clear set of short, medium and long term goals and some contingency plan in place if it doesn't go according to your original vision.
