MORE INFO
Tirana is not just a checklist destination. Its value depends on matching neighborhood, visa path, budget and work style. For short stays it can feel easy, but for one to three months the real decision points are apartment quality, commute pattern, healthcare access, tax/visa exposure and whether the local rhythm supports your work. Treat published averages as a starting point and validate the exact building, street and season before committing.
