text: People - People are generally friendly - Not too many scams like BKK - Scams are low here because the city doesn't have the same attractions like BKK - Never ran in to a Digital Nomad here like Chiang Mai Language - English level is very low - If they can speak a little bit of English the people are shy to use it - Languages that you can use to get by are Thai, Cambodian and Lao Health - Hospitals have long line ups throughout the day. - Locals go in the morning to take a number, when their time slot is coming up they go back to the hospital and wait - The wait is long to get served in the hospital it takes almost a whole day of waiting - Private is better but cost more Dental - Good dental care is cheap and affordable - Wait time is short, most of the time there is no wait time - some dentist can speak English because they studied in the US - Hard to find a good one (language barrier) Food - Cheaper to eat out than cook at home - Eating out is cheap as long as you stick to places where locals go (outdoor stalls or sidewalk restaurants) - Regular restaurants in malls and outside can add up over time. (not including food courts in malls they are cheap) - If you want to cook the best places to buy food are the fresh markets and wet markets in terms of price. - Stores like Tesco and Big C are cheap but again in the long run it adds up. Attractions - Not too many places to visit here - If you have a car you can go to Buriram to see the historical places like Phanom Rung and other ruins WiFi - A lot of free wifi in the malls and hotels - Hotel wifi - some are good and some are very bad even if it's a higher end hotel wifi can be bad - Mall wifi is fine - connects most of the time and sometimes it cuts off - the speed is okay - I found in general wifi allover the kingdom is pretty much the same in terms of speed and sustained connection
