What do expats find most challenging?

"Expats in River Valley often find the language barrier to be a significant challenge, as while English is widely spoken, the local Singlish dialect can be difficult to understand. The high cost of living, particularly for housing and cars, can also be a shock for many expats. The hot and humid climate can be uncomfortable for those used to cooler temperatures. The local food, while diverse and flavorful, can be a challenge for those with specific dietary restrictions or preferences. The strict laws and regulations, such as those regarding littering and chewing gum, can also be difficult to adjust to. Lastly, the fast-paced, competitive lifestyle in Singapore can be stressful for expats used to a more laid-back pace of life," remarked another expat who made the move to River Valley, Singapore.
