What is the biggest pressure for foreigners to live in Shanghai?

In fact, once you decide to live in Shanghai, the pressure is actually the same as that of Shanghainese.

Speaking of housing, some Shanghainese who have a house at home may no longer worry about buying a house, but in fact, many young people still have to bear the burden of buying a house if they want to leave home to work hard, which is the same as young people who come to Shanghai to work hard.

In addition, there is food and clothing. If you pay more attention to the quality of clothes and spend thousands of dollars every time, then maybe the pressure will be great every season, but if it's just a few hundred clothes, it's actually ok.

The food is better. You can order takeout in the city for about 20-30 minutes, but when you go out to eat, you can also find the kind of delicious food that can be cooked for more than ten yuan.

Young people are facing the pressure of employment, job hunting and promotion. Fast-paced city life and work will give people a sense of urgency. This is the same for both outsiders and locals.

The biggest pressure for foreigners to live in Shanghai is that I have lived in housing for N years, and I must try my best to live and work in peace and contentment. Where is the road under your feet? After nearly ten years of hard work, the biggest pressure has finally been released. New immigrants with their own property rights and Shanghai citizenship do as the Romans do. Shanghai has been an immigrant city since Kaifu, and people come and go in an endless stream. There has never been a savior in the world, and self-help is the last word. Many people from other places in Shanghai are working hard, and many people have done it. In fact, it is the traditional consciousness and motivation of China people that the next generation will no longer be called "migrant workers" when they grow up. So I will try to change the fate of my family. Retired leaves take root. Therefore, it is best to agree that capable people have houses in the city and houses in their hometown in the countryside.

The most difficult problem is often not the material conditions such as houses and cars, which can be achieved through hard work. The hardest thing is to have a baby, alone, without the help of relatives and friends. When I hired a nanny, I suddenly found that my child was injured, and I was particularly helpless. Even if my relatives came to help you look after the nanny ... What's more difficult is that the child finally grew up, and the parents who stayed at home were old, sick and tired. I couldn't take care of it. I couldn't give up the children who were about to enter adolescence and the career that had achieved little here. I am at a loss and tangled back and forth.

The first nature is hukou. The psychological pressure of floating in Shanghai lies in the feelings of second-class citizens brought by the household registration system and all the uncertainties in the future. The second is high housing prices, which is tangible pressure, and hukou is intangible pressure. Third, meaningless wage income. Fourth, loneliness and drift. Fifth, you can't see hope, lose direction and lose the meaning of life.

Everyone who has left their hometown will always have feelings and helplessness. His (her) feelings in a different place can only be hidden in his (her) heart, but helplessness always appears every day. There are people who have worked hard in Shanghai for decades, and there are also strangers who have just arrived. The world they face is a consistent machine.

"I have found a house, don't worry", "It's too far from where I work" and "The house price is extremely expensive" When this habit becomes natural, his (her) pressure is obvious.

The life of foreigners is hard to say. I think some foreigners have cars and houses in Shanghai, which is better than locals. If there is no house, it is the house price, but local people are also under pressure, such as those who work in the outer suburbs, to rent a house. And most of them are foreigners in Shanghai, just like the snacks in Chenghuang Temple are made by foreigners and have no Shanghai flavor. I think the pressure of outsiders is no different from that of Shanghainese.

I don't know. I haven't been to Shanghai. I only know that people in first-tier cities have a fast pace of life, great pressure and are easily eliminated. People like me who have no education and skills are still comfortable working in small cities.
