> I live in Switzerland now

How did you get into Switzerland? I've been considering / researching the possibility for a while, but it seems like a very long process to legally enter the country. Did you find it that way? Any recommendations?

[I looked for a personal email, but there isn't one listed on your profile.]

If you're an EU citizen, you can settle just outside of Switzerland and commute across the border. It's very common. Anyway, it can't be that hard as a quarter of the Swiss population are foreign residents[0]

Is it so much harder for UK citizens? For (most) Schengen people it is really simple.

Schengen is irrelevant here, British people have the same rights as every other EU citizen (i.e. go, then register as a citizen which is just a formality).

But the person asking is American, which is presumably very different.

I cheated --- I have a work sponsored visa, I'm afraid.
