We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...

"Finding a place to live in Tanzania can be a daunting task. It is important to research the area you are interested in living in and to consider your budget and lifestyle. You can start by looking online for rental listings, or by asking friends and family who may have connections in Tanzania. Additionally, you can contact local real estate agents who can help you find a suitable place to live. It is also a good idea to visit the area in person to get a better feel for the neighborhood and to make sure it is a good fit for you," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Tanzania.

"After moving here you can post what you are looking for in a house on the Arusha Mail Out email service, that sends an email to most expats and companies in Arusha, you pay 10,000 tzs at Meat King, downtown Arusha. Or you can find a real estate agent that You drive around to show you houses," commented one expat who made the move to Arusha, Tanzania.
