  "account": "Kevin Wörner, a 33-year-old German, has moved to Warsaw, Poland, where he founded his company, Channel Craft, which creates social media content for medium-sized businesses in the US and Germany. Poland has become an attractive destination for Germans, with 4941 moving there in 2025, making it the top destination for German expats, ahead of the UK, Italy, and the Netherlands. The country's economy has grown by 3-4% annually over the past 20 years, and its digital infrastructure and low bureaucracy have made it an appealing place to start a business. Wörner cites Poland's favorable tax environment, with lower corporate tax rates and simpler registration processes, as reasons for his move.",
