Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Romania accepting of differences?
When we asked people about diversity in Romania and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...
"It's mainly Orthodox, but Romanians have open mind about religion. There are a lot of Catholics too. Brasov, by its history, have a lot of German influence," said another expat in Brasov, Romania.
"IMO people are pretty intolerant of gypsies, non-white races, and those that are not orthodox Christian. I've been scoffed at more times than I can remember when someone discovers I'm not Orthodox and don't follow their "rules"," wrote a member who made the move to Iasi, Romania.
