With good transport links to the cities of Düsseldorf and Essen, Bochum has a lot to offer new expats. For the single expat, there is a thriving nightlife, with many clubs, theaters and restaurants. Local cuisine is traditional German food: meat, vegetables, and, of course, beer. For the expat with a family, there are many good schools (there are 61 primary schools to choose from), and the city is blessed with oak and beech forests to the south, and Bochum Zoo and Botanical Gardens in the center, as well as many other outdoor opportunities. The locals are friendly and always happy to help and the city is safe for visitors and expats alike. As Bochum isn't such a popular tourist destination, it benefits from a low crime rate.
InterNations is the largest global network for expatriates, with communities in 420 cities around the world. Meet fellow global minds in your city of residence or get to know local expatriates before you're moving or traveling abroad and never feel like a stranger. InterNations makes it easy for you to stay in touch with your expat friends, both online and offline, so you can grow your network of friends and contacts from all over the world. Whether they live in Jeddah or Dubai, InterNations allows you to be close to them even if they are miles away.
