Living in Basildon

Basildon, known as ‘The Jewel of Essex’ is a relatively new city, formed after the Second World War to accommodate the overspill of London’s citizens. Today, Basildon has certainly made its mark on the map as a multicultural city, renowned for its exciting diversity. Perfect for expatriates searching for an enriching city environment, Basildon provides all the amenities of urban living whilst being only a stone’s throw away from the beautiful seaside, iconic ‘Glass Bell Tower’ and the lush greenery of, ‘The Wat Tyler Country Park’s’ breath-taking landscape. As an expat in Basildon, you’ll enjoy all this and more right on your doorstep. Don’t forget, once settled in Basildon, InterNations can help you get in touch with fellow expats living in Basildon who are also looking to make the most of their stay in such a promising city. So, let InterNations become your platform from which to socialize, excel and circulate within your newfound home abroad.
