Geneva - Post Report Question and Answers
What is the relative size of the expatriate community? How would you describe overall morale among expatriates?
Huge expat community. I think morale varies. Some love it here, some feel isolated. Strangely, I think families with young children feel the most isolated. Our family really enjoys living here, and we love all the travel opportunities that we have. - Jun 2022

Geneva seems to be the melting pot of CH.There are many people here from the UK, Austrailia, and from other European countries. Most of the expat community is shifting constantly, due to TDYs and 2-3 year assignments; about one-third of the popluation in this area is expat, though not all English. - Jul 2009
