You need to know Chinese to get around the city. Most universities offer language programs that help foreigners learn Chinese. Regarding safety, the city is quite safe even at night but be careful of cars and motorcycles. The local food could take some getting used to. You can, however, find American food in the busier parts of the city.

If you want to move to Taipei, you should ideally be able to speak basic Mandarin, or at least be prepared to learn. If you’re coming from a colder climate, be aware that the temperature in the Summer can reach above 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees) Farenheit. Taipei also has a wonderful public transport system, so you won’t need to rent a car.
