Considering leaving the US for good? Here's what to think about before you move abroad
Briefly

Many Americans consider relocating abroad, especially during political transitions, but experts emphasize the necessity of thorough preparation and introspection. Life in a foreign culture can differ significantly from romanticized portrayals on social media. While only about six million Americans currently live overseas, polls indicate that interest in permanent relocation is rising, with 21% expressing a desire to leave the US in recent surveys. This trend reflects broader global migration patterns, prompting potential emigrants to deeply evaluate their motivations before making such a life-altering decision.
Emigrating requires perseverance and preparation, and people should weigh reasons beyond political climate. Many find the day-to-day life abroad contrasts sharply with idealized media representations.
Estimates suggest about six million US citizens live abroad; a Gallup poll indicates a growing desire to leave the US permanently, with 21% of Americans now expressing this wish.
