Let's start with some information on the political geography of this place.  Let us start by saying that, after Brexit, the territory of Gibraltar will also leave the European Union and, therefore, European citizens will also be obliged to carry their passports with them. The territory is completely surrounded by the sea, which is why it looks like a coastal plain. It is important to remember that from a morphological point of view, the submarine threshold is so deep that it prevents cold currents from the Atlantic from entering the Mediterranean. 
The official language is obviously English, but also Spanish is widely spoken and understood by all.  For this reason, the knowledge of one of these languages, will allow you to travel to the best in this locality.
The local economy suffers greatly from the various practices aimed at tax evasion and money laundering. For this reason, a number of reforms have been adopted to resolve these scourges that plague the entire system of Gibraltar. 
That does not mean, however, that citizens do enjoy a very high level of prosperity, far above the European average.
With an enviable historical and literary culture, Gibraltar attracts a great many tourists and future citizens every year, who are particularly sensitive to art.
Finding a job is not at all complicated when you consider that the same job is well paid in proportion to the experience that is supported. The minimum wage is around GBPÂ 1Â 500. As far as services are concerned, Gibraltar is also able to stand out in this case. 
Let's see in detail what are the prices for the various services and basic goods:

- 1 bus ticket: £1.10
- Monthly transport ticket: £22
- One month gym membership: £54
- Lunch in a cheap restaurant: £10
- Local 0.5l beer at the bar: £3.5
- Cappuccino at the Bar: £2.15
- Bottle of water at the restaurant: £1.42
- 1 liter of milk: £1.18
- 12 eggs: £1.6
- 1 kg chicken: £4.33
- 1 kg tomatoes: £2.5
- 1 kg potatoes: £2.25

Last but not least, it is important to understand which are the most convenient areas to live in but above all to look for a home. 
The most particular cities that deserve to be visited are undoubtedly Algeciras, Tangier, Ceuta, San Roque. Prices range from 1033 pounds per month for a property in the most active areas, while outside, in the suburbs, you can even find solutions to 850 pounds per month. To buy a property instead, prices start from 400,000 euros, but remember that it is still a tourist resort particularly popular at this time. 

What can I say, we hope to have given you all the information you need to discover this wonderful land!
