What do people like (and dislike) about Yerevan?

Answer this Question

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

"Expats and digital nomads living in Yerevan, often like the city's affordable cost of living, which allows them to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle without breaking the bank. They appreciate the rich history and culture, with numerous museums, galleries, and historical sites to explore. The city's vibrant café culture and diverse culinary scene are also popular among expats, offering a wide range of local and international cuisines. Yerevan's friendly and hospitable locals make it easy for expats to feel welcome and integrate into the community. The city is relatively safe, with low crime rates, which contributes to a sense of security for those living there. Additionally, the public transportation system is affordable and efficient, making it easy to navigate the city. However, there are also some aspects of living in Yerevan that expats and digital nomads may dislike. The language barrier can be challenging, as not everyone speaks English, and learning Armenian can be difficult. The job market may also be limited for those seeking employment, particularly for those without knowledge of the local language. Air pollution is a concern in Yerevan, particularly during the winter months when many households burn wood and other materials for heating. This can lead to poor air quality and potential health issues. Traffic congestion and driving habits can also be frustrating for expats, as local drivers may not always follow traffic rules. Lastly, while the internet is generally reliable in Yerevan, the connection speeds may not be as fast as those in more developed countries, which could be a drawback for digital nomads who rely on a stable internet connection for their work," remarked another expat who made the move to Yerevan, Armenia.
