Glasgow is a diverse, multicultural city. It is renowned for its friendly locals and premium hospitality, and contains many award-winning restaurants, interesting visitor attractions and stellar nightlife. It is a city packed full of history, and that history can be experienced on every street. Bring an umbrella however; the weather is seldom favourable!

Glasgow is renowned the world over as a friendly, inclusive and welcoming city. She may not be as pretty as her neighbours, Stirling and Edinburgh, but has a vibrant heartbeat and a diverse population. Steeped in history and culture, there is something for everyone. Scotland’s largest city is, arguably, its best!

If moving to Glasgow you ought to be aware of the ever-changing weather and be mindful to go nowhere without an umbrella, as it’s very likely that you will experience rain (and plenty of it!). Glasgow is a vibrant, multicultural city, whose reputation for violence used to precede it, but thankfully the city is shedding this image and is rapidly becoming recognised as one of the United Kingdom’s most thriving and bustling cities. Local residents, known affectionately as “Weegies” are a loud, proud and diverse bunch.

Glasgow is a fun vibrant city with a wide array of activities for different people. We have a very diverse culture, the people are some of the friendliest in the world. The scenery is second to none, within an hour or so you can be in a totally different world dependant on your wants. Sea, hills or forests – we have it all!

Anyone moving to Glasgow should know the people of the city welcome diversity. The city has a mixture of cultures and there is an overwhelming sense of inclusivity. There is plenty to do; there are art galleries, museums and parks to explore.

Know Glasgow is a place of great history and diverse culture. The weather is mostly cold and constantly changing as the day goes on, so it would be best to have a wardrobe suited to the particular climate of the city. There are many sights to see ranging from art galleries, to historical buildings and to local gems that only someone living there would discover.
