This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

So how easy is it for an American to move to the Netherlands? Asking for myself

If you are skilled labor, yes: https://www.expatica.com/nl/finance/taxes/the-dutch-30-ruling-explained-101641/

But what @abbadon420 said is equally true. Housing market's fucked beyond belief. Now, if you want to WFH and live out in the sticks, you'd be set.

The Netherlands is less than half the size of my state. There is nowhere in the Netherlands that is more rural than where I live right now, lol.

Eh, there are a few spots that it certainly feels like it, especially the Frisian islands.
