Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Leon accepting of differences?
When we asked people about diversity in Leon and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...
"Leon is a diverse city, with people from a wide variety of backgrounds and origins. People in Leon are very welcoming and accepting of diversity, and there is a general atmosphere of harmony and understanding between people of different nationalities, cultures and religions. Leon has a long history of mulitculturalism and integration, something that Leoners see as a strength and something to be proud of. Leon embraces all its residents, making everyone feel like they belong," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Leon, Nicaragua.
"There are many christian churches, catholic and protestant like the Baptist church. You will find Nicaraguans are mainly Metis (mix of European whites and aboriginal) with a small percentage of whites. Economically, as in most Central American cities you will see many unemployed and part time employed in the service industries (restaurant, food service, informal economy , etc). They are very accepting of differences although the great majority are traditional; but Leon women wear miniskirts, tight jeans, and reggaeton music is quite popular with the university crowd," commented one expat who made the move to Leon , Nicaragua.
