Wiltz, Luxembourg

Football may be the town's passion, but the reality of living in Wiltz is a persistent headache. The club FC Wiltz 71 has been relegated from the top tier of Luxembourg football seven times, most recently in 2015-2016. And while the team achieved promotion in 2020 due to the pandemic, the bureaucratic challenges of navigating the local system are a constant source of frustration for residents.

On the plus side, the club has reached one cup final, in 2001, and finished as high as 5th in the league - though European football remained elusive. But for the average expat, the bureaucratic hoops to jump through and the team's rollercoaster league performances are likely to be more memorable than any local charm. This town is best suited for the die-hard football fan willing to weather an administrative storm.
