What do people like (and dislike) about New Zealand?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in New Zealand, they replied...

"Dunedin is a delightful town. The University adds vibrancy and helps create a real sense of place. The mix of people and cultures create a wealth of amenities from cafes to museums, art shows, conferences, keynote speakers, films, music and recreation activities. The city itself is beautiful with rolling hills and stunning beaches. There are sea lions and penguins lurking on the beaches. And it is mostly a dog friendly place. Public transportation could use some improvement as could the roads. Overall it is an incredibly safe and inviting place to live," said another expat in Dunedin, New Zealand.

"Expats and digital nomads often appreciate the natural beauty of New Zealand, with its stunning landscapes, lush forests, and rugged coastlines. They also enjoy the laid-back lifestyle and friendly locals. The country is also known for its excellent healthcare system and high quality of life. On the downside, the cost of living in New Zealand can be quite high, and the weather can be unpredictable. Additionally, the country is quite isolated, making it difficult to travel to other countries," wrote a member who made the move to New Zealand.
