What do people like (and dislike) about Nonthaburi?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Nonthaburi, they replied...

"Expats and digital nomads generally like living in Nonthaburi, for several reasons. They appreciate the lower cost of living compared to Bangkok, which allows them to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle without breaking the bank. The city offers a wide variety of delicious and affordable street food, as well as numerous restaurants and cafes catering to different tastes. Nonthaburi is also known for its friendly and welcoming locals, making it easy for expats to feel at home and make new friends. The city's proximity to Bangkok is another advantage, as it provides easy access to the capital's amenities, job opportunities, and entertainment options. Nonthaburi itself has a growing number of coworking spaces, making it a suitable destination for digital nomads who require a reliable workspace. The city also boasts several shopping malls, markets, and parks, providing plenty of leisure activities for residents. However, there are some aspects of living in Nonthaburi that expats and digital nomads may dislike. The city's public transportation system is not as extensive or efficient as Bangkok's, which can make getting around more challenging. Traffic congestion can also be an issue, particularly during peak hours. The language barrier can be a challenge for some expats, as not all locals speak English fluently. This can make everyday tasks, such as shopping or dealing with bureaucracy, more difficult. Additionally, Nonthaburi's healthcare facilities may not be as advanced as those in Bangkok, which could be a concern for expats with specific medical needs. Lastly, while Nonthaburi offers a more relaxed and laid-back atmosphere compared to Bangkok, some expats and digital nomads may find the city's entertainment and nightlife options to be limited. This could lead to a feeling of isolation or boredom for those who crave a more vibrant social scene," said another expat in Nonthaburi, Thailand.
