Switzerland:

- people and services are usually more punctual

- community thoughtfulness is strongly enforced

- sensible gun ownership

- preppers

Is there still a church tax in some cantons?

How do taxes compare with say Norway or Sweden?

Q: Why are the Swiss so friendly?

A: No one can understand each other.

Norwegian living in Switzerland here. Taxes vary from canton to canto but are much lower than both Sweden and Norway in general, you will be better off financially in Switzerland.

I will probably move back to Norway at some point though. The main reason being that you get a year parental leave in Norway but only 1 day in Switzerland. There is also the improved social security net, more focus on work/life balance and better equality between the sexes.

Based on what do you rate equality between the sexes?
