It's nice to live in China. Firstly,Chinese people are easy to get on well with. They are always polite and honest to foreigners. You can easily get help from them. Secondly, there are many beatiful place for you to visit in China.  You can enjoy your life in China.

well, this question should be cut into two sides
china is the most stable and peaceful country in the world, chinese people are friendly and warm-hearted, chinese food are delicious and various,goods are cheap, landscape are beautiful.
but with large populations, traffic jam are also serious.

It's up to you, I think china is a really nice place to live in!

Hello, I think it is nice to live in China, because china has many citys, different city has different life style, so you can have many choice, as long as you have enough money and energy, you can settle in every city which you like. I prefer Hangzhou and Qingdao, Hangzhou is very quiet  and Qingdao is very romantic that the sense gives people.

I like to live in China, i think  chiese people are very friendly,the food is delicious,the most important is the climate is good. in fact if you like to live china depends on which city you live.it is a wonderfull thing to live a beatifull and rapidly develop city,there are many opportunities to work and improve yourself.besides you can learn some knowledge about the old cuiture about the big country-----China.

I think it depends on your personality (likes and dislikes, ability to accept different cultural habits, etc), the kind of life you want to live, and where in China (big city, or second tier cities) you want to settle. Interestingly, it also depends on whether you are a man or a woman, since although relative to Japan or Korea (broadly speaking) Chinese society is less hierarchical, men and women are not as much on par as in Europe or the US and this seeming subtly will affect your living/ working in China in varying degrees, esp if you have kids or need to deal with Chinese authority for whatever reason.

The majority of people I know who moved from the US (since I don't know anyone who've moved from France) like and dislike China mostly on the below categories:

Likes: Standard of living improves (cause for the same cost you can get a fancier apartment or better schooling for the kids), in addition, the variety of Chinese cuisines and drinks, the hustle and bustle of China's big cities, the nightlife, the hospitality of the Chinese people and their generosity, the love of the Chinese for festivities and crowds, the rich history of the country and the historical landmarks, business opportunities for the right people.

Dislikes: Quality of life falls (larger environment not as friendly, or convenient, long lines at supermarkets, fewer green lawns), in addition, the smug surrouding most big cities, the crowds on the streets and shopping areas, the traffic, the scaricity of "natural" landmarks like they have in the US (Great falls, National parks, untainted rivers) or Europe (Alps, etc). Not to say there aren't any natural landmarks, but they are hardly comparable to those in the US in terms of scale or quantity, lots of social norms, red tape in unexpected situations (like buying a rail ticket)

To sum up, if you are openminded and want to witness China during a time of rapid economic and social transition, and can take a bit of hardship (not knowing language or otherwise), willing to appreciate the local cultures despite it sometimes being very different  (and perhaps may even seem rude) from what you might be used to, and to keep a sense of humor, then living in China can be an eye opening and rewarding experience. Living in China takes a certain amount of courage and patience once you get past the initial fasination stage.

Hello Shirley my name is Jud I live in U.S.A. and have been to China one time. I was there only 10 days but I must say it was the best trip I have ever made.The people I found to be very nice and very willing to help you. I only wish I could go back one more time.I am 67 years old and have had a stroke and the doctor will not let me go on long trip. It was the best learning experience of my life. I never saw people work so hard in my life. If I could find people in my country that would work that hard I still have time to get rich! I still buy the items i use in my business every month I get most of my leads through Alibaba. But as far as your friend goes If he can keep up with the people in China he might have a chance of staying,BUT if he is the least bit lazy dont give his bed away.  Good luck to you and your family{ and friend ]    Jud
