"One of the most challenging aspects of the local culture for expats in Erlangen is the language barrier. Although many people in the city speak English, the majority of the population speaks German, making it difficult for expats to communicate with locals. Additionally, the local culture is quite conservative, and expats may find it difficult to adjust to the more traditional values and customs. Finally, the cost of living in Erlangen is quite high, and expats may find it difficult to find affordable housing and other necessities," explained one expat living in Erlangen, Germany.
