Your Expat Community in the United States

From deserts to everglades, mountains to rolling plains, the USA has just about every kind of landscape you could imagine. With huge global centers of finance and commerce, many expatriates relocate to the USA to advance their career — or just because they fall in love with the busy cities, incredible natural wonders, and the friendly and diverse people who call the country home. Our communities of expats in the United States are some of the busiest and most popular on InterNations. Once you've become a member of InterNations and look at our guide articles and forums, you’ll find out that a lot of the questions you may already be wondering about have been clearly and extensively answered by the community on the site. Whether you’re interested in the healthcare provision in the US, how the education system works in Massachusetts, or the best areas to live in Ohio, you can find lots of views from a whole range of expats. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, why not reach out to the community to gather their views?

And, if you do have a special interest or hobby you would like to pursue in the USA, you can also attend one of the events or join one of the groups, organized regularly by InterNations members in your community. So, no matter if you're in California or Connecticut, if you enjoy cooking or climbing, there will be a get-together to match your needs. Time and again, expatriates have shared the view that being able to continue their favorite hobbies has been critical to them feeling happy and settled in their new home.
