Offer to move to Johannesburg

16 years ago

Hi,
I am an Irish guy and I have been offered a job in Joburg. I would move with my wife and 15 month old daughter and my concerns are for them.
Would appreciate feedback from people who have moved out there with families to hear how they have fared? My wife is very out going and mixes well but I am concerned that she would be alone and not meet people. Is it easy to meet up with people socially? I know there are security issues but does that have an impact on someones abiltity to develop friendships with people?
Also would appreciate feedback on what would be a monthly family budget on everything excluding rent and car.
Thanks in advance,
Paddy
