Yeah, the cost of living here is quite high, but other than that, Hong Kong is great. I love it here. I actually feel safer and more stable here than anywhere else right now. One of the few cities with very few number of covid-19 cases and deaths: 5948 cases and 108 deaths for a city that's densely populated. In addition, I can walk here very late at night, even after midnight or wee hours of the morning, and I feel safe. I don't have to worry about getting mugged. Actually my French friend told me that it is less safe in Paris where you can get mugged. And there were many times that I lost something valuable and got them back. People actually run after me and try to catch me to give something valuable to me that I accidentally forget such as a camera or a phone. And some people will actually walk me to a place I can't find even if it is a little far such as one block away. I am actually extremely grateful to be here The media can be harsh sometimes. Possibly people who do these studies or do this reporting never lived here nor even visited this city. I actually know some people who judge a place or it's people, and their knowledge about the place or its people is way off, and yet even if they've never been there, they still act as if they're right about it. Their knowledge is just based on assumptions. https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/society/article/3111462/hong-kong-second-worst-city-asia-expats-live-due-soaring
