Which country should I cover next?
Thanks for watching!
(NEW) Here's the new updated video about "Moving to Switzerland" 🇨🇭👍🏻:
ua-cam.com/video/57DA9rEOKDk/v-deo.html
Too much talking without much information
I lived in Switzerland until I was 29. I also lived some in Germany and 2 years in Moscow. Now I live in US. If you have a good job and income in Switzerland, DO NOT LEAVE.
I landed in US at 7 from a post soviet country and been here since, now 28, things are comfy here but want to experience the world but not give up a good standard of living. Seems switzerland would be perfect most likely near zurich as my best chances at a good job would be google with my IT background.
I know a swiss girl who went to US and loved it and got married not coming back..
wichtig und richtig
@@Malinkadink Yes Zürich is really good for IT, it‘s a small sillicon valley ;) But in cantonnZug there ist the crypto valley with a lot of inetresting startups might check this out aswell
One of the best things in Swiss is that we have a wonderful Nature and not City’s like NYC.
Moved from Zug to Basel-Stadt and it’s not as criminal as it sounds
One of the reasons why criminality is so high is because its a city Canton but also because it borders to both France & Germany. There is a lot of “border-crime” which you won’t experience unless you set yourself out for that
Just a disclaimer, if you can't speak German or French (or Italian) Geneva is probably the best option
I come from Valais but lived in Geneva for 3 years back in my uni days and it was awesome how people speak all languages you can imagine in public transports or so. Very nice, international-oriented city. Cheers!
Agreed.
If you don't speak neither German, French or Italian you shouldn't come to Switzerland at all.
I grew up in the canton of Schwyz and moved around sometimes, even to the canton of Zurich. But I'm back in Schwyz again and it's nice to know it scored first place in your conclusion. :)
Grüezi,near Biberbrugg?
Im from schwyz too
Also nice to know my canton is the worst hahaha
My ex a belgium penniless aristocrat alain de coninck who marries rich women ,steals their money and runs from belgium, france,Germany, phoenix arizona where he worked for rosetta stone and now in schwyz with 5th wife Jeanette gilmann! Conman and crook! Penniless!
I live in Switzerland and if you look at all the votes in the last few years you will see that the canton Schwyz voted not very foreigner-friendly...
So I'm not sure if it's the best place if you want to move to Switzerland.
Schwyz is a canton people primarily move to for tax reasons. So if you move to Schwyz you will be surrounded by people who put avoiding taxes over other factors like entertainment, culture, nature, urban layout, commute times etc. Usually those people are not the most interesting or pleasant to be around. In many ways Schwyz is the last canton I would want to move to. Greetings from Zurich, where people living in Schwyz work and enjoy cultural life while refusing to pay for it.
Also if you work in canton schwyz you will benefit from a ton of extra free days per year (bc religious holidays etc.) Which zurich basically has non
As a person, who lives in the canton of Schwyz, don‘t come here. We have Muotathal… the worst place in the world. Also, the only good thing here is the Lucerne lake and that’s it.
Why would that be a problem
@@Mandaia Geile siech😂
I’m Swiss and if you ask me or any of my compatriots literally NOBODY will tell you to go to Schwyz🤣 A good place to live is not only about income, taxes, climate etc.
What would you recommend? I consider the cities of Lausanne, Lugano, Lucerne, Zurich, Geneva. I will be glad to hear your opinion
@@Kristina.sokolova2 if u really want money the go to zurich, best option overall is lucerne
@@eddies_ I heard that in Zurich, housing and life in general are too expensive. Will it cover the salary level in Zurich? And is it really possible to find a normal job? Thank you!
@@Kristina.sokolova2 Ticino is the best canton for retirement. Ticino is also the best canton for people for people looking for work in the tech / fashion industries.
The downside with Ticino is that although you can find english speaking work, to be able to integrate longterm you need to learn fluent Italian as I reckon 85% of people in Ticino don't speak english whatsoever.
@@eddies_ I agree, Lucerne is best located near alps but also near the 'flatlands', also doesn't have insane taxes. Well connected via rail and Autobahn to major population centers if you have to commute for work. Great nature, very safe.
Interesting video! I live in Vaud and I think an important factor should be : « Things to do » whether activities for children, sports, shopping malls, bars, nightlife, etc… If you move to Graubunden or Jura you’ll probably be bored or driving insane miles, in Vaud I’m 30 minutes from Geneva center, Lausanne, Montreux, Yverdon and in an hours drive I can reach almost any French speaking city which is definitely an advantage! Same with « Scenery » as having big lakes, big forests, or just nature in general is important for choosing a place to live. Hard to define in a ranking though so I understand it’s missing from here! But go job on the videos! :)
Exactly, Vaud is well connected to the other Cantons, is the fourth largest and the third most populated one, and is geographically very diverse: one of the only two Cantons, along with Bern, that covers the three geographical regions (Jura moutains, Plateau and Alps). Also has the fourth biggest city and access to the first and third largest lakes.
My dad grew up in GR now me, my dog, mom, dad live in BE and my mom's v70 has a BE plate
as somebody from central Switzerland I can say that there's nothing to do in Schwyz as someone in their 20s so it should be ranked lower in terms of things to do (entertainment)
@@gabrielgerhard9122 What can you say about Lucerne? I'm trying to choose between the cities of Lucerne, Lausanne, Lugano, Zurich. It is important for me that it be a large city, but at the same time not too expensive life. I will be glad to hear your opinion
@@Kristina.sokolova2 interesting choice:
Zurich = Central/great connections, great job opportunities, big city. German/English speaking, high taxes, expensive rents
Lucerne= Central, good job opportunities, prettiest city and not too big, medium taxes, low rents, German/English
Lugano= South, not the best connections, good job opportunities, warm and you have the Italian dolce vita feeling, medium taxes and rents, Italian/half can speak English
Lausanne= everything the same as Zurich except it's West and they speak French
Personally I would recommend Lucerne when it comes to your budget and Zurich when it comes to jobs and overall standard and entertainment/restaurants
Fribourg is actually a bi-lingual canton where part of the population speaks german and part of it speaks french. In the capital city, 70% speak french and 30%, german. Many people understand the other language and there are often bi-lingual conversations.
Another thing to keep in mind is that cantons with low tax rates like Zug and Schwyz have very (but very) high real estate prices, which, to some extent, offset the tax benefits. It all depends on your personal situation (do you already own a property? Do you have high income or high net worth? Do you work or are you retired?). Frankly, security in Switzerland is really not a problem, even in the "worst" cantons. If you have ever lived in really big cities with strong cultural attractions, you will find Switzerland pretty parochial and boring. For me, the biggest attraction in Switzerland is the Alpine scenery. My favorite canton is Valais.
this video is soooo good! the effort put into it is remarkable!
wow, very impressed on the breakdown! subscribed!
This is an exceptionally informative and objective video. Of course there is more to an objective and quantitative perspective, but it certainly is a starting point. Can't cover everything, but it covers some very broad bases. Loved your analytical assessment. Impossible to account for every nuance and priority, but you hit some strong categories. There is always room to add more categories, but this is a good overview. Beyond those, it is easy to add one's own categories and rankings. I do wish I could have downloaded the table. Took me a couple of hours, but I reproduced the table exactly to XLS. Thanks for this - nice work!
I live in the Canton of St. Gallen and I have always been happy in my canton.
You forgot to mention the health insurance system, the rent and costs for living in general... you've to pay very high rates for your health insurance. Costs at the supermarket are almost double than European average and not to mention the average rent....
I agree 100-percent. Overall a highly informative video however health care (cost + availability) and cost of living are more important IMO than say population growth. Thank you. :)
You earn also much more..
Yes you pay a lot more for supermarkets etc but just compare to germany,
Starting income for a first job in the bureau: ger: chf 2‘200.-, sui: chf 4‘500.-
Taxes: ger: around 45%, sui: highest is around 15%
So you actually have a much higher netto income then in surrounding countries...
@@nicolassalathe6905 I was talking about the costs for your health insurance. Lowest rate is around 600chf per month and on top you have to pay for every single visit or treatment etc. Plus, that costs doesn't cover any dental cases. That comes on top. That's a huge difference to Germany.
@@backtothewaves9493 no way, I can assure you my families pays less than 1000 for three people
Very comprehensive! Much appreciated.
Thank you aesp! Glad to hear that you liked it :)
Totally agree 👍 thank you 😊
Few years ago I read that the best configuration is living in Canton Uri and working in Canton Luzern.
Low rents, taxes and health insurance costs of Uri + higher salaries and work opportunities of Luzern 👍🏻🇨🇭
I live in Zürich and this video was very good.
Danke! Grüessli us Züri!
Thank you for this video!
You're welcome 👍🏻
Excellent video! Thank you.
Thanks much for this very comprehensive video! We're pondering whether to come to Switzerland and this proved very interesting... speaking of which, you did an awesome research and put together some awesome tables to evaluate the different cantons. I wonder if you can or will be willing to share YOUR stadistics with us? Your excel or similar? Will save us the time of putting together that same data, whereas tweaking it a bit to our preferences.
If not able, we totally understand... thanks again for this video!
+ 1
Just came across the video and have no reason to move there yet.
But if I have to then I'd choose Ticino the climate is perfect for me.
I love the mix of Swiss and Italian architecture there not to mention Lugano and Lake Maggiore.
Just what I was looking for👌
Great! Glad you found this video. A warm welcome to this channel :)
Damn ur pronunsiation of the swiss cantons is perfect
Zurich is awesome i remember there in the 90s, but it rained for 2 weeks straight once, and they had an open heroin market in the city park, which is gone for sometime now. But the infrastructure and public transport is perfect.
Did the place flood after 2 weeks of raining
@@TeimonKauppa739 we‘re pretty good prepared for the rain.
you should check it now. this place you are talking about is now a beautiful park / river area where families and friends hang out and swim.
Speaking of heroin. Switzerland has combatted the heroin crisis better than any other country by stopping punishments for users, giving out free high quality heroin, having social workers help addicts and safe places where they were able to consume the drug. Heroin related overdoses, street crime, HIV and unemployment rate all went down significantly since then. Regulation, Liberalisation of the drug and Harm reduction have saved switzerland from a crisis that couldve ended as bad as the opioid crisis in the US did/does
@@TheBigchekka unfortunately now there is a drug problem in the Vaud area, I would like it to be solved
Congrats for a very profesional analysis. We have lived here since 2022… a dream come true. We choose Vaud mostly per culture and language (prefers French than German). Great work.
So I'm moving to schwyz from Sweden next month and I just came across this video 👍
Good choice!
The best indicator is if people are happy where they are. In several studies over several years the region of Murten was ranked number 1. Murten is close to Bern and Fribourg and has a beautiful lake.
Very informative 🙏
Why are you here???
🧐🧐😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Zug, my hometown! Would never move anywhere else whilst living in Switzerland 🇨🇭
how can i migrate there. im from Philippines. its my childhood dream
Grüezi, I'm also based around there🙂
How to migrate there ? I am from India and had travelled to zug during my Swiss holiday trip and simply loved it...
If you are not ethnically European there is no point in moving to Switzerland as they make it very clear in their citizenship admission process that they don't want non-Europeans. You will have better luck moving to a place that welcomes foreigners.
Thanks for information
If you want work.. go zurich, aargau, basel or schwyz. If youre rich you go zug, schwyz or luzern. If you want a nice place with a little lonelynes you go glarus, st. Gallen, appenzell or graubünden.
If you speak french you go western switzerland.. if you speak italian you go tessin. If you speak english you should stay around zurich city, basel or geneva.
Which city is better for young people to go to?
If you only speak English you probably mean.
thank you! great and detailed analysis. much appreciated.
Fake comment
It would nice if you would provided a summary tables showing all cantons with all of their ranking discussed in your video. Than you anyway.
Never heard before 50 degrees Celsius in Ticino...and low, we go under 0 too especially in January and February
It’s 50 degrees fahrenheit not celsius
As someone who has already lived in 5 of the cantons and visited almost all of them I can just agree with your analysis. Living in Zug now, but luckily at a three-digit rent on the countryside.
As a further notice, for French speaking people Lausanne can be really attractive (probably more than Geneva) and for Ticino, there the average and decline in population mostly has to do with the vast valleys, Lugano is quite attractive though and at it's hotspots comparable to Zug in most of the points.
3 digits in Zug? How? A room for an apartment with flatmates sometimes costs more. I've grown up in Hünenberg See and been looking. Do you live in Neuheim, Menzingen or Walchwil? Else that sounds impossibly amazing
@@IronFlasher99 yes it is in Menzingen.
Thanks very much. Very informative. Would it be possible to calculate the rank list without the points: climate, security and unemployment rate? Thanks very much.
Nice. What about the fun factor!
I'm looking at living in Valais, Graubuenden, Canada (Blackcomb, Whistler or Banff) or Japan (meant to be good powder). Snow sports are not only fun, but great health benefits.
Rent is a Swiss state of mind, however home ownership would be more desirable.
Valais would encourage me to learn French, which would open up travelling around Africa.
Big benefit of Ticino is shopping over the border in 'cheap' Italy, but maybe I can shop in 'cheaper' France from Valais?
I live in Graubünden and it's beautiful here. But it's similar to Valais. You can always shop in the bordering countries. But it's only worth it when your on a shopping spree
Move to Ticino
Of course, homeownership is more desirable but who can afford it? Most Swiss can not even afford it. Not sure if that has anything to do with state of mind.
Very interesting! The Climate in Ticino is unbeatable! Living in Lugano must be a Delight!
Well... Yes, but still Switzerland climate sucks, including Ticino
@@javierslytherin9898As someone who lives in Minnesota, I laugh whenever I see Europeans complaining about -10°C Winters or 35°C summers when I have to deal with both IN THE SAME THREE MONTHS. You guys dont understand how lucky you are
thank u 4 this video
i love BS...living here since 1996 working in Novatis also great
Thank you, interesting video. Does each canton have their own visa procedures for foreigners? Students?
The RDI-Indikator from Credit Suisse is also interesting and creates a similar ranking.
Is there a good reason to use the footage of Moscow, Russia for about 25 seconds starting at mark 7:21 while showcasing Switzerland?
Hi BC, just discovered your channel and loving your videos. I'm thinking of moving from New Zealand to Switzerland one day, as I've inherited a Swiss citizenship but have never been there. Have you mentioned air quality in any video? That would be my only concern, moving from an isolated and low population country. I have heard that air quality in Switzerland is better than a lot of nearby countries.
Thanks!
Air quality is at the cutting edge! No really, Switzerland has good air :)
@@MovingAbroad Brilliant, thank you!!
Good to know the history and culture of The paradise Switzerland. Thank you for showing the beautiful and magnefient scenery. I wish your success and Happy weekend. Watching from Dubai.
Thank you for your heartwarming comment! Wishing you a great weekend as well!
The weather is strange to messure because in some parts it gets fogy.. A lot of the time.. Sun hours are very good in baselland
It is the best analysis I ever seen on UA-cam for free.
Why not to share your google sheet with digits? I expected to find it in the description. It consists useful information!
Спасибо! The sheet doesn't contain more information than what is shown in the screenshots of the tables👍🏻
very informative as always
Thank you Floris!
Glad I grew up in Zug!❤️
Hi, I have one question for you do people in Zug have too many pets cats/dogs ? I am allergic so just want to get an idea whether this city has too may pets
Hi, I'm based around there and I can tell you in a sunny or day of good weather, you'll be sure to see lots of people walking their dogs near the centre or simply around their home. However if you go to the nature which can be easily accessed, it won't be an issue then. Cheers
Seeing Obwald, Nidwald, Appenzel, Uri and Glaris being so high is funny because almost no one lives there lol
Shouldn't annual rainfall also be considered in the climate section?
You have to consider health insurance costs as well, which differ by canton and are quite high. In germany, they are part of the taxes. They are highest in geneva.
Merci!
I want to know the insurance costaricanen for house and also for the car.
Is a colder weather really worse considering Skiing and Snowboarding one of Switzerland’s main Sport
Lived in CH for 5 years in the early 2000s. Thereafter, lived in different countries across Europe, Middle East, and North Am. Returning back to CH after some 15 years and hopefully, never to leave again. paradiso!
what city do you live in?
Glarus-Oberurnen is magical. The Alps from this vantage point is a MUST see!
Heed my advice, and let your spirit free…
Switzerland in general will take your breathe away
My Grand-Mother lived near Glarus. It is somewhat small but lovely. Landscape unbeatable.
@@danielwiniger6284 Switzerland in general is unbeatable.
What a country!
go check our video on taxation of crypto gains in Switzerland: ua-cam.com/video/w_tvmvSMxS0/v-deo.html
In Wallis, some people also speak German. (like me)
But Wallis also has limited job opportunities and schooling (if you don't know French, like me XD). If you like sports, great, but if you want to live normally without feeling like the mountains are going to fall on your head at any moment, not so much.
Half of Wallis is German so why say only 'some' speak German?
9:30 Would you like to be near the snowy mountains and between several lakes an hour away from Zurich. Then St. Gallen is the place for you.
My bf lives in Solothurn and its nice
Very interesting videos BUT most English speaking expats will not really want to consider any of the rural cantons you included. Effectively, only urban areas with lots of existing expats such as Zurich, Zug, Basle, Geneva, Lugano, Lausanne and Berne (or St Moritz/Gstaad if you are super rich) are really worth considering for them. If you speak one of the national languages that widens your choice a bit but there are cantons you mentioned where even most Swiss people would not move such as Glarus and Jura. Graubünden is touristically interesting but otherwise very isolated.
You got me puzzled. I follow your reasoning and see why the areas you listed are the most attractive for expats. However, I don't get why Jura is such a bad choice. I understand that's a place with nothing to do. But also, it's a cheaper alternative in Switzerland, probably the most expensive county to live in. An expat may very well be a multi millionaire, but the are "only millionaires" too. For those, Jura seems a possibility of retiring in a country that doesn't sucks. I don't see how a law abiding non European may afford Bern, Lausanne, Geneva, Zurich, etc...
Unless the French spoken there differs from French just as much German-Swiss differs from Hochdeustch.
@@Neomalthusiano Jura has high taxes. If you are cash rich and income poor Germany is a good choice because they don't have wealth tax per se. Switzerland has a wealth tax, albeit usually below one per cent. If you have lots of money you can buy an amazing property on lake Neuchâtel with the Jura mountains behind you.
@@swissdivineFirst, I thank you for replying. I understand your point, and it makes a lot of sense for me. Still, hypothetically, if a given expat had pension fund income (in some funds you invest money throughout your saving stage, but once you retire you get a inflation adjusted income for the rest of your life, based on how much you saved and the money is gone. So, when you die your heirs don't get anything, but on the other hand, you are entitled for this pension for as long as you live - a perpetuity) he wouldn't be liable for wealth tax, only to Canton income taxes (I believe Switzerland has double taxation agreements with a number of foreign countries, so income payed abroad would be deducted from federal income, but even if it isn't, it's still less than most developed countries.
However, I concede that this understanding is mostly hypothetical, as in pratice no one who saved towards retirement through a pension fund could afford to live in Switzerland anyway. It's unrealistic.
I’d like to add that while Ticino is the warmest on average, it also has the most rainfall. The driest canton is Valais. Living in Suisse
And the one with the most immigrants is either Zurich or Geneva
Most rainfall measured by quantity, but not by rain days
@@zero_twelve ok, whichever way you want to read it, Ticino is the wettest region/canton
@@MarcCheckley that’s a misleading information. It has the fewest rain days and the highest sun housers count ;)
I am not telling you that you are wrong, just that the information can be interpreted wrongly
@@zero_twelve you're right
I lived for nearly 30 years in this canton and I moved abroad. I admit that Neuchâtel is considered as not very attractive and at the same time, you can have also good job opportunities in medical, machine industry and watch industry. So, if you're a very good engineer and you've strong analytical skills, it can be quite good. Don't forget that Neuchâtel is the fifth canton who exports most in Switzerland. Sure, you don't have all the infrastructures you may expect and you can have a very relaxing frame of life with green fields and some very good touristic attractions like "Saut du Doubs", "Creux-du-Van". Last but not least, people are not so "Cold" as in cities like Geneva or Zurich. You can't judge a place only by seeing "KPIs" or figures. Neuchâtel will welcome you for sure!
Thanks my friend to defend my canton ^^
Canton of Schwyz is like one of the most conservative canton. It has a lot of farmers and if you can't speak German there, people will dislike you for it.
There's a higher possibility that you won't build up a social circle than other cantons there.
1400 franks average rent in Geneva - that must include some distant villages away from Geneva, right?
this is extremely well analyzed
People who use to live in Switzerland and now no longer live there such as America. Why did you move and would you recommend outsiders to move to Switzerland?
Nice. Very informative. But I think Language is also a logical factor to be considered specifically for Switzerland 🇨🇭
Being a construction professional I would like to know if I know Italian would I be able to work in Ticino region & also other part of Switzerland ??
Ticino for sure, though they have their own dialect... a lot of the employees on the construction sites (like bricklayers for example) come from a lot of different countries so you may not be restricted to Ticino only... though it helps if you were to learn German in addition to Italian...
@@sksaddrakk5183 OK thanks
Geneva is probably where I'd want to go
Nobody in this comment section who isn't already an Swiss citizen, have the ability to become an Swiss citizen.
You should not just look at employment rates but at Jobs/capita and average commute distance. Some of those rich cantons, like Schwyz, are just dormitories with big commutes to urban centers for meaningful jobs.
You should try to compare salaries and taxes including PPP (purchasing power parity), 150k CHF is a far above average income for a family of 4 in germany, whereas it is way below in zug or average in neuchatel. Even in switzerland, there are huge differences in PPP (e.g. scaling factor of 0.6 between geneva and wallis, meaning that having 60$ in wallis is the same as 100$ in geneva). This also has an impact on taxes. 150k in berlin is equivalent to 280k in zurich, at 280k in zurich tax is around 22%, which is still stupidly low compard to germany but it would give a clearer picture of the situation.
I got a job offer from canton St. Gallen in the rhine valley for around 100k CHF, would that be a good salary?
@@lucadreier22 that depends on the job, your experience and so on, but could you live a comfortable life with it, yes
Lugano would be my first choice if I moved to Switzerland
I’m from Jura
This is interesting
This was a good all round video but it really should be redone to compare the main cities throughout the Switzerland.
If you feel inspired go ahead!

Weather wise Ticino but salary wise Zurich.
A very positive thing in Baselland is if you say grüezi (greetings) to every bünzli (old people a.k.a videocameras) it‘ll be less likely that they call the cops on you for a noise complaint😂
I'm interested in Lucerne

Canton = region
Would you not live in the canton you got a job in ?
I'm from Bottmingen in Basel Land and all i can say about it is that it is beautiful to live there , we have a Schloss " castel " , a water park , some great schools one with a Olympic sized pool , two awesome tennis schools, one fire station , only one tiny super market 😂 horse schools, some forest to go walk and a almost none existent crime rate that till now we have to go the next village for a police station , those where the upside now for the downside ... if you are not wealthy you will find it hard to live there it is the kind of place where it is normal to see old ferraris and other expensive cars around , ohhh almost forgot we also do have massive underground garage with most of the houses owning bunkers inside.
Overall proud to be a swiss made guy.

I live in Lucerne :)
Of course Wallis
Im planning to move there zug Canton.
I assume you would enjoy living in a 50 sq meter Apartment for $ 2500 a month rent. Of course unfurnished. And the Apartment does not have any closets.
Yeah it's pricy in Zug... But the tax benefits are huge
@@MovingAbroad For that, you need a very high salary... ;-)
Definitely Fribourg ! ❤
how wise to work in Zug but live close by Kantons due to rental fees are lower? I have an offer with 85.000 chf yearly and was wondering if i work in Zug but live in close by other Kanton.. What would be your suggestion or thoughts :) thanks a lot for the detailed awesome video:)
You have to pay taxes in the kanton where you live.
I do that, living in Schwyz and work in Zug... it depends if you are single or a family... if you are single you may not care about the higher taxes and pay a slightly overprized flat (also considering the time and money spent for commuting), for a family Zug is tricky to find appropriate accommodation as there is literally 0% spare/empty flats and as a foreigner it is difficult to acquire real estate (which in the long run is cheaper than renting a place)...
Most taxes are paid to the Cantons and competition is very good! But one important factor is health care costs! All privatized and not cheap! Cultural offers are difficult to compare but to some folks they do matter. Education costs and offers are more important to families!
IT is kind of nice to know that Ia have choosen the worse (in your score) canton to live in :D
hahah it's still a good choise!
@@MovingAbroad I had strong reasons to pick this one... They were just personal and familial ones... :) The one big done for me is distance from big ski stations... I love my Snowboarding 😊
What is your nativ language?🤔
I’m having ideas of leaving the US.. I’m a nursing assistant and wondering how they treat their healthcare workers there and wonder how the pay for the job is and if I would be able to afford it. Any help? (:
First of all try to learn german, french or italian ; your work area has a great shortage in Switzerland but you need to speak one of these languages ...

I think Schwyz and Zug are the best.
Why zug for you?

You failed to talk about which Cantons actually speak English. Basel Stadt for example has a lot of international people due to Novartis / La Roche and other companies. This also means people are less xenophobic. Swiss people (on average) are already pretty racist and xenophobic, so picking a Canton which only has Swiss people in it, will just lead to a bad time.
There will be comments saying ''nooo Swiss peope are not racist'', but those comments will always come from Swiss people who haven't experienced it.
In certain Cantons you cannot get away with speaking only English, as most people won't be able to communicate properly with you, but it's a completely different story in Basel Stadt for example. My guess is that it's similar in say Zurich. In Schwyz for example you'll find mostly very conservative OG Swiss folk who will not like most foreigners.
You're also not talking about day to day life. If you went by this list, you would end up in ultra conservative, boring ass Cantons with nothing to do except get untrusting looks from Swiss people. I honestly only suggest places like Zurich, Basel-Stadt, Geneva, Lausanne, Luzern or Bern. The rest can be a rocky experience for foreigners. Not to mention those ''highly ranked'' Cantons usually have extremly rough dialects and you will not be able to understand anything. Basel for example has one of the more softer dialects and people who understand German (which you will have to slowly learn), say that Basel has the easiest dialect to understand.
You should be the top comment!!
What is your assessment of xenophobic Swiss people based on ?
@@user-hs2hd7wp9g 25 Years of life experience in switzerland, ex gf was african but born and raised in switzerland. Still experienced racism here and there, usually by older swiss people.
@@user-hs2hd7wp9g Living it and knowing that it's the same for many others. As nice as Switzerland is, it can be extremely xenophobic.
People are born and raised in Switzerland and even if they feel Swiss, speak a dialiect perfetly, they will still be an Usländer for example.
@@fufu1405 I am a future medical doctor ( foreigner obviously from the EU :) ) thinking about moving to Switzerland. Would you then recommend Zurich, Basel-Stadt, Geneva, Lausanne, Luzern or Bern as you mentioned these cities? I am also not able to get a feeling if the Swiss healthcare system is in need of more MDs? I really wouldn't like to get myself into a situation where it is difficult to find a position in one the hospitals in the before mentioned cities.
Also thank you for the in-depth description , cheers!
