Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Buenos Aires accepting of differences?
When we asked people about diversity in Buenos Aires and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...
"The city is diverse but not as diverse as most. Many Venezuelans are now here. There is a large discrepancy between the rich and the poor. In general, they are not extremely friendly to outsiders in Buenos Aires. There used to be lots of Americans living here, but not as many anymore. You really need to know your Spanish here," remarked another expat in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
"People come from all over to visit BA - mostly from the US, Europe and Brazil. The locals are a melting pot of Italian, Spanish, German and Jewish. There seems to be quite a big lack of Asian and African inheritance. As an expat, I am always meeting people from around the world, and eating food from different parts of the world every week," said a member in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
