Moving back to the US or relocating from overseas? GRC handles every detail of your move to the United States.
If you're a US citizen returning from abroad, your household goods can re-enter duty-free. Non-US citizens should work with a customs broker (GRC handles this) to navigate tariffs on certain items.
The United States offers unmatched diversity — from coast to coast, every region has its own culture, climate, and character. Opportunities are abundant, and the melting-pot society welcomes newcomers.
Healthcare is primarily private and employer-based. Quality is excellent but costs are high without insurance. Medicare covers those 65+. The Affordable Care Act offers marketplace plans.
Varies enormously — NYC and San Francisco are among the world's most expensive cities, while the Midwest and South offer very affordable living. No national sales tax; rates vary by state.
Car-centric outside major cities. NYC has world-class public transit. Other cities vary widely. Domestic flights are frequent and relatively affordable. Amtrak connects major eastern cities.
Diverse, entrepreneurial, and fast-paced. Americans are generally friendly and outgoing. Tipping is standard (15–20%). Each region has its own personality — the South is warm, the Northeast is direct, the West is casual.
Excellent universities (Ivy League, MIT, Stanford). Public K-12 education varies by district — school quality is closely tied to neighborhood. Private and charter school options abound.
Get a Social Security Number (SSN) if you don't have one. Open a bank account (Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo). Get a driver's license in your state. Explore your new city — each neighborhood has character.
The US spans nearly every climate zone — from tropical Florida to arctic Alaska. Choose your region based on how much sunshine, snow, or seasons you want.
The US offers everything from Manhattan penthouses to Montana ranches. Here are some of the most popular areas with international newcomers.
Classic NYC living — Central Park, Lincoln Center, and excellent schools. Family-friendly with a strong international community. Walkable and transit-rich.
Beach city within LA — sunshine, outdoor lifestyle, and a growing tech scene. More walkable than most of LA. International and health-conscious.
Miami's urban core — modern high-rises, international dining, and a Latin-American business hub. Warm year-round with a cosmopolitan feel.
Upscale neighborhood with Golden Gate Bridge views. SF is a tech and innovation hub. Temperate climate and world-class dining.
Leafy, family-friendly neighborhood near the lake. Chicago offers big-city amenities, world-class architecture, and a fraction of NYC's cost.
