What advice would you give someone preparing to move to your area about the actual move, choosing a neighborhood and finding a home?

Manila is a bustling city with a unique culture and a vibrant nightlife. It is important to be aware of the traffic and the pollution levels in the city. Expats should also be aware of the cost of living in Manila, which is generally higher than in other parts of the Philippines. It is also important to be aware of the local customs and etiquette, as well as the language barrier. Expats should also be aware of the safety and security situation in Manila, and take necessary precautions.
