Location
Open in Google MapsLiving in Saint-Étienne
A former industrial city southwest of Lyon that's become one of France's most affordable urban options, with rents well below Paris, Lyon, or Nice. It was named a UNESCO City of Design and has been reinventing itself with creative industries and a strong university presence. Very much a local French city -- English is rare, so this is for expats committed to learning the language and integrating into authentic French life.
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.

Next steps for moving to France
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
