"We live in a two bedroom apartment on the second floor of a family house on a quiet street, a 5 minute tram ride from downtown. We don't know too many other expats, but it seems that living in a house rather than an apartment building is standard, as most apartments here are in communist-era buildings and are very, very small and not well maintained. My favorite thing about living here is that the family who owns the house is wonderful and we've become good friends. They have also introduced us to their friends who have shared some of our most memorable experiences in the Czech Republic. The worst thing about living here is that almost none of the neighbors speak to us. There are two people in the neighborhood who say hello; one who lives across the street, and the other who walks his dog several times a day by our house. Otherwise, even people we see almost every day won't even say hello. Nothing serious, just that feeling of being "other" or "outsider."," said another expat in Brno, Czech Rep.
