Tips and Advice on the USA from Your Fellow Nigerian Expats

Obviously, expat life in the USA goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Nigerians is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the American mentality and way of life. Nigerians in the USA are a part of our community, calling cities such as New York City, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Nigerians in Washington D.C., for example.

Wondering where to shop for Nigerian delicatessen, want to discuss your national team's latest match, or simply talk to someone in your native language? Become a member of the American InterNations Community!

  • Our network is the best place to meet expats from Nigeria.
  • On the the USA Expat Forums, you can get competent answers to all your expat-related questions: how to find a babysitter fluent in your mother tongue, where to get jolof rice in Washington D.C., etc.
