Santo Domingo is a city of differences. On one hand, there is the Zona Colonial, a historic area with nice buildings and good food. People like the friendly locals, and salsa bars are popular for those who want to dance. However, the rest of the city can feel busy, with lots of traffic, noise, and pollution. Living in Santo Domingo has its ups and downs. Some people enjoy the rich culture, but others find that living costs can be high, especially if they go out often. Public transportation can be challenging; many suggest renting a car because the local bus system, called "wawa," can be hard to understand and not very dependable. Also, knowing some Spanish will help a lot! On the downside, some visitors talk about problems like trash and not enough parks, and there aren't many English speakers around. While you explore, be careful, as some people may try to take advantage. Overall, if you can handle a bit of chaos and enjoy the local atmosphere, Santo Domingo can be an interesting... place to visit!
