Belgrade (Brussels Morning) – Are you wondering about the best place to live in Serbia? Then you have come just to the right place as this article briefs you about a number of places to consider living while you are in Serbia. Serbia has a lot of beautiful and safe places that you can consider. So, keep reading to find out more about them!

Options for the best places to live in Serbia

Serbia is a pleasant, safe, culturally diversified nation with a good work-life balance. The most appealing aspect, though, is the inexpensive cost of living. For Americans considering relocating, it’s worth noting that the living cost in Serbia is much more than 50% less than in the United States. 

Furthermore, rent in Serbia is about 85% cheaper than in the United States! Serbia may not be the first nation that comes to mind when thinking about where to relocate because it is neither a member of the EU nor the Schengen Area. Meanwhile, Serbia is an excellent choice for expats and remote workers seeking a high-quality living at a reasonable cost.

Following are a few options for you to choose from:

1. Novi Sad

Novi Sad is one of the greatest places in Serbia to reside since it is a commercial, cultural, and educational hub. Furthermore, because of its large student population, it has a modern, youthful, and progressive air, and it stages several music festivals. As a consequence, newer expats and digital nomads flock to it. 

Despite its young, the city is historic and lovely, with heritage buildings and antique architecture. Novi Sad has a vast and intriguing history that extends back to the Stone Age, as evidenced by the several museums in town. The countryside surrounding Novi Sad is equally breathtaking. It is located on the Danube River’s banks and overlooks the Fruka Gora mountain range.

2. Subotica

Subotica is a town near Hungary’s border and Lake Palia. Although it is largely obscure to outsiders, many expats who live and work in Serbia have opted to make it their home. The city is modest yet lovely, and due to its size, you’ll enjoy a relaxed, calm existence. As a consequence, it’s a great alternative for people who loathe huge, noisy cities. 

Every year, the town hosts a variety of festivals and concerts, providing a great combination of culture and pleasure. Furthermore, Subotica has the most buildings created in the art nouveau style, which adds to the city’s charm. The school system is likewise of excellent quality, which makes it popular among expats with families, particularly those from nearby countries such as Hungary and Croatia.

3. Belgrade

Belgrade is Serbia’s capital and, without a question, one of the nicest cities in the country. Anything and everything can be found here, from vibrant nightlife to high-quality restaurants to stunning historical structures. Belgrade has a very distinct vibe. It has a distinctly European flavor and is sometimes characterized as a Mediterranean lifestyle without the shore.

As you walk through the streets, you’ll see an intriguing mix of modern influences, old traditions, and a touch of bohemian. Throughout the day, you may immerse yourself in the city’s famed coffee culture by visiting all of the chic cafés. Then, at night, you may visit the famous floating river clubs, where you can meet locals and other expats.

4. Nis

Nis is a tiny city on the North Macedonian border and an important Balkan Peninsula transit hub. While it is not a well-known city, it is well-known for its historical importance in the Roman Empire, since it served as a residence for numerous Roman emperors. Nis is also known as the administrative headquarters of the Niava Sector and has a bustling business district. 

Software developers, product designers, engineers, and tech-related occupations are the most popular jobs for foreign employees in Nis.

5. Novi Pazar

Novi Pazar is a midsize city in southern Serbia with a population of little over 100,000 people. It is an important commercial center with a robust manufacturing economy, particularly in textiles. The town is quite walkable and cosmopolitan. Novi Pazar is influenced by both Islamic and Western cultures. 

Because so many locals are Muslim, some outsiders compare Novi Pazar to a little Istanbul. Anywhere along small lanes, you will discover mosques, Turkish coffee shops, and kebab stores. Despite this, western influences, such as international retail centers, make the city varied. Many historical sites, such as the Soprano monastery, may also be found around the city.

Conclusion

That was all for the best place to live in Serbia. Make sure to read the article throughly and keep checking back for newer updates. Hopefully, you no longer will have to worry about this topic anymore. Leave a comment if this helped you!
