One out of four Bulgarians is a potential emigrant

A quarter of Bulgarians would go to live in another country if they had the necessary documents, according to a Gallup International study conducted in 57 countries.

67% of Bulgarians say that they would stay in their homeland and 8% cannot decide. Attitudes in this country correspond to the average for the European Union, where one out of three people would prefer to live in another country.

One of the explanations for the results in Bulgaria is the continuous migration to Western Europe and North America in the 1990s, which led to a situation in which anyone who wished could leave. Other possible factors are remote work, increased living standards and access to goods and services in more developed countries
