Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Santiago accepting of differences?
When we asked people about diversity in Santiago and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...
"Santiago is a diverse city with people from many different backgrounds. The city is home to a variety of ethnicities, religions, and cultures. People in Santiago are generally accepting of differences and are tolerant of different beliefs and lifestyles. The city is known for its vibrant culture and its welcoming attitude towards visitors from all over the world," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Santiago, Chile.
"Santiago is a very diverse city in terms of religious, racial, economic and cultural matters. They seem very accepting of any religious groups but I have noticed here a strong tendency towards "classism" and a definite prejudice (among some) towards any darker skinned people. There is a definite divide among different social classes. Homosexuality is also something that is not well tolerated here. Of course, this is not true of all people here, it is just an observation I have made about some general tendencies," commented one expat who made the move to Santiago, Chile.
