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

"Egypt is a diverse country with a population of over 100 million people. It is home to a variety of ethnic and religious groups, including Coptic Christians, Muslims, and Jews. While there is some tension between different religious and ethnic groups, the majority of Egyptians are accepting of differences and strive to live in harmony. The government has also taken steps to promote tolerance and acceptance of diversity," said another expat in Egypt.

"Very friendly people and excepting of most but don't ever forget that being Muslim is very important to people here. They like people from all over to visit because this means having a good tourist business," wrote a member who made the move to Alexandria, Egypt.
