Hello All,
II need your help with planning everything out. Right now I'm trying to find an area to live in that's not filled with expats. My aiming city is PP. Are there still western style toilets in areas away from the lake? I'm not trying to spend too much, and would like honest opinions about actual local housing, not expat housing. Also, what would be a fair budget per month for a single person who lives a pretty boring life? lol
Thanks in advance,
Cynome
Eww This Apartment is gross. Not really. Well, maybe.

Local style housing doesn't have western style toilets.
But western style toilets may not have the local style bum guns.

Thanks, so are there areas that are not expat filled but still safe and convenient?
If there's no western foreigners in a particular area, there's probably nothing much there with the convenience of western foreigners in mind. So, depends on what you mean by convenient.Cynome wrote:Thanks, so are there areas that are not expat filled but still safe and convenient?
You could rent a villa in Elite Town on Diamond island. Fairly certain you won't have any western neighbours.
'Local housing' might cost you anything from $40 to $400, depending on whether you want a shack in a shanty town, a 4x4 box in a garment factory block, a traditional stilt house along the black water of stung meanchey, or a regular old flat.
These areas are almost certain to be 'backpacker free', but there's probably churchy folk playing guitars in their shop house church on every second street and you might have to come face to face with another barang if you want to buy something outside of what's available in the wet markets.
There is endless choice all over the city but the lake is long gone.
