Yens, Switzerland

With a population of just 1,430, Yens is a sleepy Swiss village that offers little to entice expats looking to start a new life abroad. The tax burden is heavy, with over 55% of the land dedicated to agriculture. And despite its quaint charm, the bureaucracy is a persistent headache - nearly 20% of residents commute out of town for work. While the village enjoys a high standard of living, its lack of economic diversity and remote location make it a poor choice for anyone seeking an international, cosmopolitan lifestyle.
