Hi all,

I'm about to move to Zurich with my family from Geneva, I wanted to find out what are the nice areas to live in. My new job is based in Orleokon, but I don't mind commuting from Zug or Schwyz either as I've heard that they're quite nice.

Any tips of nice areas please?

Thanks

Buying or renting?

Flat or house?

How many rooms?

Garden?

Pets?

Commute by public transportation, or driving?

Proximity to international school?

Budget?

Tax rates a consideration?

Seriously, we need a bit more information in order to give you sensible answers.

(Bear in mind that the housing crunch in the ZH area is similar to Geneva - in other words, you may not have much choice.)

As you are not exactly the only person who comes to Zürich to work, you'll find several Threads here which discuss the area and commutes.
For Zürich itself, there is a long Thread in the Sticky at the top of this Forum which gives ideas.
