Johannesburg, also called Joburg by the locals, is a busy city with many surprises. Living here has good and bad points. The suburbs are lively—areas like Sandton, Rosebank, and Bryanston have nice coffee shops and great restaurants. You can find affordable meals and good steak dinners, which is good for your budget! However, be careful in the city center, as it is known for crime. Many locals recommend staying in the suburbs and visiting cultural sites when you're with friends. Don't miss The Cradle of Humankind for interesting history, and make sure to visit The Kruger National Park—you will enjoy it! Joburg has friendly locals and good weather, which helps newcomers feel at home. Just remember, safety is important—stay alert and take basic precautions. The nightlife might be quieter than in other cities, but there are still bars and clubs to enjoy. If you're looking for a mix of culture, friendliness, and fun, Joburg could be a good choice for you!
