Summary: The pros of living in Tajikistan include its stunning natural beauty, its rich cultural heritage, and its friendly people.

What are the pros and cons of living in Tajikistan?
Expats, digital nomads and retirees living in Tajikistan responded:
"Expats and digital nomads living in Tajikistan appreciate the country's stunning natural beauty, with its majestic mountains, lush valleys, and crystal-clear lakes. They also enjoy the friendly and welcoming people, the low cost of living, and the unique cultural experiences. On the other hand, some expats and digital nomads find the lack of modern infrastructure and amenities to be a challenge, as well as the limited availability of international products and services. Additionally, the language barrier can be a challenge for those who don't speak Tajik or Russian," wrote one expat in Tajikistan.
