Moving to a new country is far more than buying a property. It is choosing a new way of life. Cyprus has become a sought after destination for families thanks to a rare combination of a warm community, personal safety, a high quality of life and easy access to the rest of Europe and the Middle East. Here you will find everything that makes the move easy, natural and home like from the very first moment.
A warm and growing international community
In Cyprus, and particularly in Limassol and Paphos, a large and vibrant international community has grown up in recent years, with a substantial Israeli presence. Many families who have already made the move describe settling in quickly, forming new friendships and feeling a sense of belonging from day one. The community holds gatherings, festivals and shared activities, so even far from home it is easy to find friends and support.
Education for children to a European standard
One of the central considerations for families is education. Cyprus is home to leading international schools teaching to European and American standards, and a school serving the Israeli community has opened in Limassol. That allows a soft landing for children, preserving their language and identity alongside a high standard of teaching and quick social integration.
Personal safety and quality of life
Cyprus is considered one of the safest countries in Europe, with one of the lowest crime rates on the continent. The pleasant Mediterranean climate, the beautiful beaches, the relaxed pace and the modern services create an exceptional quality of life. It is a perfect environment in which to raise a family, work and take a holiday, all in one place.
Close by, and close to the heart
Cyprus is a short flight from the UK, Israel and much of Europe, which makes it easy to stay in constant touch with family and business back home. That proximity, alongside the cultural and climatic familiarity, makes the move natural and comfortable without giving up the connection to home.
