When first moving to Washington, D.C., I didn't know many people outside of the office. InterNations has changed that with some exciting events.
Living in Arvada
While the nickname "The Celery Capital of the World" might be a little off-putting, this Colorado city of some 100,000 people is an affluent, comfortable destination with a strong community spirit and a lively events calendar. Expatriates living in Arvada have plenty to explore in the city, including the Arvada Center for the Arts & Humanities and the Apex Center, a popular water park. Olde Town is the pride of the city – it's a historic shopping district and a great place for expats in Arvada to get a taste of the city's character. There's plenty else besides to attract global minds – Arvada has a high quality of life, a very low crime rate and striking natural surroundings. All this makes it a great location for expats.
