Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Phuket accepting of differences?
When we asked people about diversity in Phuket and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...
"Phuket is extremely diverse, with people coming from all over Thailand and the world. The various ethnicities and religions living in and visiting Phuket are generally welcomed and accepted.

"Quite diverse - Thais from all over Thailand, Foreigners - mostly from Europe but also lots of Aussies and Americans," explained one expat living in Phuket, Thailand.
