Most Hungarians who are currently living abroad would not return
Change language:
According to Telex‘s report, most Hungarians moved abroad to work for a better living and not out of a desire for adventure. For a third of people, political sentiment is also an influencing factor in emigrating.
The situation in Hungary is seen differently by those who stay at home than by emigrants. Kopint-Tárki’s researcher wrote about Hungarian emigration in the 2020 volume of the Social Report (Társadalmi Riport). In the period between 2018 and 2019, a total of 1,387 Hungarians living abroad were interviewed, to which 853 Hungarian residents were added as a control group. The questions focused, among other things, on the reason behind their emigration. The research indicated that
65 per cent of emigrants moved in hopes of a higher income and therefore better livelihood.
For 40 per cent, desperation and lack of job opportunities in Hungary were the reasons, and for another 20 per cent, specific financial problems (such as loan repayment) were the main motivations. The political circumstances also played a part as 37% of Hungarian emigrants stated it as a reason for their emigration. One-fifth of the participants said that better education and thus a brighter future have influenced their decision-making.
After 23 years living in a broad in the US, in Germany and in Asia we have returned to Hungary in 2020. We wish to raise our small daughter as Hungarian. In my opinion, the country is governed well providing lots of opportunities in my view, again in my opinion!
Socialists aim is to destroy the west to usher in the NWO of communism/fascism. Teaching young false narratives so they hate themselves & their country is just one of many plys.
In July it was 40 years that I’ve bounced from my old country. I was 21 at that time and wanted to go as far as I can so ended up down under Australia. I’m so happy that I’ve come here because I’ve been in every continent as a tourist and there is no place like here… I’ve been back to the old country many times but I kind of feel like a stranger. I miss the old place though but would never move back…
