Standard of Living


Are you looking for reasons to move to Luxembourg? Have you been relocated and do you have questions about standards in Luxembourg? Luxembourg boasts not only a healthy natural environment, but also well-developed first-rate transport, communications and healthcare networks, set against a stable political, social and economic background.

International surveys regularly rank Luxembourg as offering a great quality of life. In the 2010 Newsweek Study, ranking 100 nations based on health, education, economy, politics and quality of life, Luxembourg was rated as being the fifth best country in the world. In the 2011 "Corruption Perception Index" by Transparency International, Luxembourg ranks 11th worldwide.

In the December 2011 Eurobarometer study on the perceived quality of life, 95% of the Luxembourg interviewees claimed to be very or fairly satisfied, reaching the second highest score in the EU, after Denmark (97%) and the Netherlands (97%) and Sweden (97%). Luxembourg City also ranks as the world’s top capital in terms of security and personal safety.
