I might repeat myself (please forgive me). Whereas Hungary might have some (big) disadvantages, it definitely has its pluses (and some of them I miss).
Pluses.
-to me the biggest plus is being part of EU (and Schengen)
.Driving license change
.Health Insurance
.Pensions
.Rules with properties
.....
-Difficult to compare as I live now in Turkey (many things are the same such as in Hungary (please note NOT in the rest of the EU))
.Respect for elderly people (such as me) (not so much in other countries, but still a plus)
People complain about the state of health institutions, only thing I can say, I DISAGREE, I am/was actually quite happy
Neighbours (on the countryside) even if old they were very friendly and helpful.
Infrastructure (to me) is fine.
Shopping (provided you have a car) is EASY.
Home deliveries is easy to arrange (meat (50 kg at the time), wine (120 bottles), whiskey (24 LT), VERY VERY good hamburgers (Smokey Burger), cigarettes (300 packages) needed, but as we lived in a very large property also 300 LT of sparkling water).
Shopping is really for fruit/vegs/cat and dog food, but nothing too heavy or difficult....
Bottom line if you live in a village, you need a car, even for small things.
Public transport in a way is great, but timing is important, I used to deliver my wife to Heviz Lake (3 minutes drive), but the bus back comes ones per 30 minutes (by the way is not bad). 300 m from our property was a DIRECT line to Budapest (then again Budapest is big, in my view what to do then)
Too much time now, I probably make a post on the minuses as well
Conclusion for now Hungary is not too bad at all.
