What do expats find most challenging?

Answer this Question

We asked expats and digital nomads what they find the most challenging about the local culture in Mexico City. They wrote...

"Expat life in Mexico City can often be quite challenging, as there is a big difference between the culture of a developed nation and the culture of Mexico. The language barrier is certainly one of the biggest challenges to overcome, as many people in the city do not speak English and communicating can be difficult. Mexico City is a bustling metropolis with a very fast pace of life, and this can be a difficult transition for those used to more relaxed cultures. Additionally, the often unpredictable traffic and limited public transportation can be trying for many expats living in the city. Finally, the intense heat and humidity during the summer can be difficult to cope with for those not used to such conditions," commented one expat who made the move to Mexico City, Mexico.

"Not reading newspaper editorials that dare to criticize any Mexican political officials. Plus, very few people say what is on their minds, sort of the opposite of African-Americans, West Indians, or Jews in the United States. It is a xenophobic culture, for the most part, sort of like the Chinese culture. Mexicans are far, far more relaxed when and if they are amongst their own kind, although there are occasional and definite exceptions," remarked another expat in Mexico City, Mexico.
