Nicosia

Before moving to Nicosia, expats should be aware that the city is divided into two parts, with the northern part being under Turkish control and the southern part being under Greek control. Expats should also be aware that the official language is Greek, although English is widely spoken. Additionally, Nicosia is a relatively safe city, but expats should take the usual precautions when travelling around the city.
