If you have ever decided to move out of your parents’ house and shift to a different city for work or college, you probably know how scary it is. Living in an unfamiliar city with no family or friends around is a huge task. Being on your own is a challenge in itself, but what if your neighbours and colleagues aren’t welcoming as well? That will be so much worse and will make adjustment all the more difficult. To help people make the right decision while moving to another city or country, Preply recently took it upon itself to reveal a community spirit index.
