Information and Worth Knowing
Living Conditions
Austria offers stunning mountain landscapes in a very well protected nature and the advantages of widely developed and safe cities. In addition, there is a wealth of art and culture on offer. Therefore, the country and its capital Vienna, are ranked as one of the most livable places in the world.
Many visitors are attracted to the central European country: skiers, architecture enthusiasts, gourmets, theater and museum lovers are not the only ones who enjoy themselves.
The water supply for households is ensured in drinkable quality. This is because almost one hundred percent of Austria’s drinking water comes from groundwater and spring water. The valuable water resources are also protected by the Austrian Water Law Act.

Job prospects are a frequent reason for choosing the country as a new home.
Most of the work here is in the service sector: tourism, travel and transportation, construction services, as well as financial and insurance services are of great importance.
In addition, knowledge-intensive business services have become increasingly important in recent years.

Indeed, the two German-speaking countries maintain an intensive economic relationship, which builds on a long history of close ties between the neighbors.

This was followed by China with 7.4% and Italy with 6.5%. At the same time, Austria exported goods worth almost €50 billion to Germany, which accounted for about 30% of total exports.
