The chart shows the difficulties people have when they move to a new country and how the problems vary according to people's ages.
The greatest problem for young people aged 18 to 34 is forming friendships, a problem experienced by 46 percent of the people in this age group. However, only 36 percent of 35- to 54-year-olds find it hard to make friends, while even fewer people over 55 (23 percent) have this problem.
Fifty-four percent of the older age group find learning to speak the local language the most problematic. In comparison, the youngest age group finds this easier, and the percentage who have problems learning the language is much lower, at 29 percent.
In contrast to their language-learning difficulties, only 22 percent of people in the oldest age group have trouble finding accommodation. However, this is the second most significant problem for the other two age groups with 39 to 40 percent of the people in each group finding it hard.
In general, all age groups experience the same problems to some extent, but the percentage of older people who find language learning difficult is much higher than the others.
