How do I find a place to live in Bangladesh?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Bangladesh is to use online resources such as rental websites, classifieds, and real estate agents. You can also ask friends and family for recommendations. Additionally, you can look for rental postings in local newspapers and magazines. Once you have identified a few potential places to live, it is important to visit the area in person to get a better sense of the neighborhood and to ensure that the property is suitable for your needs," explained one expat living in Bangladesh.

"Basically my company decided. All expats lived in Gulshan area so we went for same. Baridhara seemed nicer but it was more expensive too. Now they have started construction on high buildings everywhere in both Gulshan and Baridhara and it is quite tough to live in these areas. In a few years these areas will not be so called residential anymore. My company used an agent to see apartments," said another expat in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
