Cost of living impactChris and Jennifer Tidroski purchased a €26,000 home in a building in the village of Latronico, Italy after becoming frustrated with life in the US. The couple say that the cost of living in the US has become too high, especially when it comes to healthcare. Chris explains that the political polarization in the US has been a contributing factor in their decision to relocate to Italy. Although the costs were slightly more than they estimated, the Tidroskis say they couldn’t have afforded a similar house in the US. While his mother was Italian, Chris’ father was Polish-Lithuanian.
