It is also important to research the safety and security situation in the area, as crime rates are higher than in other parts of the country. Additionally, expats should be aware of the local culture and customs, and be prepared to adapt to the local way of life. Finally, expats should research the availability of healthcare and other services in the area, to ensure they have access to the necessary resources," remarked another expat in Johannesburg, South Africa.
