10 Best Places to Retire in Switzerland

9. Canton of Zurich

Ranking as the city with the world’s second quality of life -surpassed only by Vienna, the city of Zurich becomes a great spot for folks who are not particularly concerned with the economic aspect of retirement. Though relatively cold in the winter, with daily means of about 32 ºF in January, its status of the global city provides it with the necessary infrastructure to make you comfortable during the winter so that you can be ready to enjoy a 65 ºF average summer.

Keep in mind, though, that world-class hospitals, museums, opera houses and restaurants, come at a price, for Zurich is among Europe’s most expensive cities.
