How do I find a place to live in Ningbo?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:
"The best way to find a place to live in Ningbo is to first consider your budget and what type of living arrangement you are looking for. For example, if you are looking to rent an apartment, you can try searching websites like airbnb.com and c-trip.com to find available apartments in Ningbo. Alternatively, you can find advertisements for apartments in local newspapers and Chinese online forums. If looking to purchase a property, real estate websites or classifieds/forums can be a great way to find an ideal place to call home. Finally, if looking for a roommate or seeking long-term lodging, you can find various listings on social media sites, student websites, and other online listings," said one expat who made the move to Ningbo, China.
