Pula, Croatia
Follows Croatia Residency Rules. Check Digital Nomad & Retiree Pathways →
This Croatian city on the Istrian peninsula packs a lot of Roman history, but don't expect an easy life. With just 52,220 residents, Pula is Croatia's seventh-largest city, yet bureaucracy is a persistent headache. The climate is humid subtropical, with hot summers and chilly winters. While the amphitheater and other ancient ruins are stunning, the city's infrastructure shows its age. Pula may appeal to history buffs and retirees seeking a slower pace, but those seeking modern conveniences should look elsewhere.
