In terms of religious, racial, economic and cultural diversity, are the people of this city or town diverse? Are they accepting of differences? Describe.

Not very diverse, people often stare at you as a foreigner. If your skin is somewhat dark, or if you are black, people often pass judgement on you quickly. However, it is a beautiful city with many friendly people. Religion is not so deep here.

What are the main industries in this city? What types of career opportunities commonly exist? How do most people find new jobs?

It is a small city that is central in the Pearl River. Most people find jobs by knowing people. People from various countries can teach their own language on www.TutorSearchChina.com

In general, what are peoples' priorities in this city? For example, do lives revolve around work, family, socializing, sports, etc.?

Most people are focused on work, but many also enjoy going out at night. In general, people realize that they need to improve their Chinese ability because English is rather limited here. I suggest finding language teachers on www.TutorSearchChina.com

If a friend of yours was thinking of moving to this city or town from far away, what other advice would you give them.

I'd suggest studying some Chinese ahead of time.
