A bit philosophical, of course there are always items to complain about, indeed in Hungary things could be much better, but then again residents (even pensioners) are much better off then they were 30 years ago. The residents of Hungary can now easily move to the Caucasus (as we are planning to do) at very effective prices, 30 years ago moving to another country would not have been possible, Most of the Hungarians have their own property (prices have sky-rocketed (income perhaps not, but overall financial situation has (perhaps some sad exceptions though (we have witnessed some))
Overall I think Orban is doing a very good job and if expats (or locals) do not like it we have the liberty to move (JUST COMPARE with history).
Hungary (cost of living) is quickly moving (too quick as to my taste).
Me and my wife have benefitted from the increase in property prices (not yet realized, but could very well be).
I like Hungary in general, people, crime-free (relative), taxes, ...
What I do not like is the lack of international restaurants, the fact that things are getting more expensive then they were, ....
I prefer to live like a king (ie buying what I want to buy), when and IF I move I will miss Hungary, but quality of life is also important.
