Albinen (Image: (Image: By Xenos - Own work, CC BY-SA 3.0)) A beautiful village in the heart of the famous Alps is paying people to move there - and it has more women than men. Although much of the world seems concerned with overtourism and mass immigration right now, and all the problems they can bring, one little spot in Switzerland is having the opposite problem: it doesn't have enough residents, especially eligible bachelors or families, and is paying people to move there.

Albinen is a stunning mountain town, with lower areas dominated by forests and meadows, and the higher altitudes are crisp with snow, especially in winter. Set in the south of the Swiss Alps, the village is 1,275m (4,183 ft) above sea level and is something of a sun trap, set in a sunny south-facing slope between two rivers. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.
