Hello to all,

My name is Virna. My husband and I will be moving to your beautiful country in about 6 months.

We are from California in the United States and we are so excited to be moving to Luxembourg. We are in our late 40s/early 50s and cannot wait to meet new people with different backgrounds, cultures, etc.

We are in the process of looking for apartment rentals which has been quite challenging. We hope to move to Limpertsberg in Lux City and are looking for a 1 bedroom, minimum 55 m2 unit with laundry inside the unit, modern style, with a relatively new bathroom/kitchen.

Would anyone be able to comment on how much an apartment of this type will cost. The other option we have considered, if Lux City is too expensive, is moving to Mersch.

I'd appreciate any feedback, any advice that make this process easier since we understand finding rentals in Luxembourg is not easy.

Thanks so much!

Virna

It is easy to find this type of information online. I resided in California for 10 years. The apartment rental for 1 bedroom will vary between 1300 and 1800 depending on whether it is furnished or not and how far from the city center. Get ready for the high deposit and salary requirements.

Hey,

I would suggest that you move higher up (geographically) and here is why:

- the prices around luxembourg city are insanely expensive

- you get much more for that amount of money higher north.

- depening on where, you'll take less time to reach luxembourg city then actually living IN luxembourg city.

What do I mean by 'higher up North' ?

To give you an example, we have a house in Mersch , it takes me 10 minutes to get to Kirchberg, which is less time than from the train station of Luxembourg City to get to Kirchberg... even though both are in the same city

Our House costs 1.185.000€ and is currently on sale, point is that those prices are impossible in Luxembourg city, and even Rent costs more than just buying a house or appartment and paying mortgage.

Let me know if you need help with the immigration process or other, im a civil servant and work with those matters and might eb able to give you pointers.
