"Before moving to Ho Chi Minh City, expats should be aware of the city's tropical climate, with hot and humid weather year-round. It is important to be aware of the local customs and culture, as well as the language, as English is not widely spoken. Expats should also research the cost of living in the city, as it can be quite expensive. Additionally, expats should be aware of the traffic and transportation system, as it can be quite chaotic. Finally, expats should research the availability of healthcare and medical services in the city," remarked another expat who made the move to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
