Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Bishkek accepting of differences?

Answer this Question

When we asked people about diversity in Bishkek and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...

"There is a fair amount of diversity, though not that many expats for a capital. No real ethnic areas. It isn't hard to meet people if you want, though it's hard to cast a wide net if you don't know Russian, and Kyrgyz are annoyed if you know none of theirs. The markets are a major diversion, especially the big Osj bazaar toward the west," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.

"Bishkek is a diverse city with a population that is made up of many different ethnicities, including Kyrgyz, Russian, Uzbek, and Dungan. People in Bishkek are generally accepting of differences and there is a strong sense of community and tolerance in the city. The city is also home to a variety of religious groups, including Muslims, Christians, and Buddhists, and people of all faiths are welcomed and respected," commented one expat who made the move to Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.
