A stunning French Riviera town between Nice and Cannes with a walled old town, yacht-filled port, and over 300 days of sunshine. There's a well-established expat community with co-working spaces and international groups, though it's one of France's most expensive areas — expect to pay €4,500-6,500/sqm. The trade-off is world-class Mediterranean living.

What American expats need to know about France

Talent Passport (Passeport Talent) — multiple categories for skilled workers, entrepreneurs, and researchers. Qualified employee route requires min €39,582/yr salary. Valid up to 4 years, family included. Visitor Visa (Visa Long Séjour) suits retirees with passive income — no work allowed, must prove €1,600+/mo resources.

Paris is comparable to NYC; elsewhere 30-40% less than US major cities. Lyon, Bordeaux, or Toulouse run €1,500-2,200/mo comfortably.

France has famously complex bureaucracy (the préfecture experience is legendary) but offers world-class universal healthcare, 5 weeks mandatory vacation, and excellent public infrastructure once you are in the system.

Morning baguettes from the corner boulangerie, two-hour lunches with wine that no one apologizes for, and the slow realization that the French were right about everything involving food.
