"Expatriates in Hong Kong appreciate the city's vibrant energy and its unique blend of East and West. They also enjoy the city's diverse cuisine, which offers a variety of flavors from all over the world. Expats also appreciate the city's efficient public transportation system, which makes it easy to get around. Additionally, expats enjoy the city's rich cultural heritage, which includes traditional festivals, temples, and markets. Finally, expats appreciate the city's welcoming and friendly people, who are always willing to help out newcomers," said another expat in Hong Kong, Hong Kong.
"people are friendly and polite most of the time. Hong Kong is very clean in most respects (not the ocean or the air though), and is very safe. It has excellent public transport and english signage, and is easy to explore. I do live on Hong Kong island which is expat friendly though, and I am sure this is why it sometimes gets called "Asia lite"," wrote a member who made the move to Hong Kong, Hong Kong.
