Are you struggling with the cost-of-living?Tired of miserable grey skies when we’re supposed to be entering spring? One Swiss town might have the answer to ease your woes.
Albinen, located in the canton of Valais, is offering to pay families over £50,000 just to move to the stunning mountain valley village.
The beautiful area sits on the mountain slope at 4,265 feet (1,300 metres) above sea level.Its traditional chalets look down over vast surroundings of snowy white peaks.
The small village has been threatened with extinction for some time as an increasing number of residents are moving out of the rural picturesque community in favour of surrounding cities.
At the end of 2020, there were just 243 residents in the village.But the scheme, , is hoping to buck that trend.

The scheme was launched five years ago to reverse the trend of people leaving the town.
Despite the alluring village being just over four miles (6.8km) from the spa town of Leukerbad and a 35 minute drive from both the Canton capital Sion and the industrial city of Visp, the town has emptied out over the years because of the lack of jobs.
Families of four will receive 25,000 Swiss Francs (£22,440) per adult and a further 10,000 Swiss Francs (£8,975) per child.
While the deal for over £50,000 in exchange for moving to one of the world’s most beautiful spots is tempting, there are some other requirements.
To stop the town form emptying, Albinen is looking for people aged under 45 to take up residence.
You will also need to be a Swiss citizen with a permit C residence.
If you are citizen of an EU or European Free Trade Association country, or from the U.S.or Canada, you can obtain this after living in Switzerland for five years. But for other countries, including us Brits, you would need to live in Switzerland continuously for a decade.
You are then required to live in a home valued at at least 200,000 Swiss Francs (£180,000) — and then you must remain living in Albinen for 10 years.

At of the end of 2018, there were just 238 residents in the small village.But the scheme, originally launched in 2018, is hoping to buck that trend
If you leave the scenic town before the term is up, you will then have to pay back your £50,000 payout.
The municipality’s president Beat Jostin in 2017 said Albinen was characterised by its quietness, phenomenal views, great air quality, and many hours of sunshine throughout the year.
Jost also added some more caveats: ‘Second homes and large residential complexes of investor groups are out of the question.
‘Anyone who moves away again ten years after the start of construction or after buying the house must repay the money.’
Despite the strict requirements, Switzerland does boast one of the best education systems in the world, and air pollution also isn’t such an issue up a mountain side.
Life expectancy is also relatively high, and the country has a low violent crime rate.
