A country of villages

• It makes a big difference if you are a white male western European moving to Zürich, earning a good salary. It will be easier for someone like that and even then, it may not be so easy!
  
  Imagine the daily experiences for a non-white African woman moving to a small town in Switzerland. The country is known for conservative narrow views and xenophobia! The experience depends a lot on how well you can blend in just on your appearance and your wealth, not only how much you can adapt to a culture. Of course speaking one of the national languages will help a lot.
  
  It is important to remember this is a country of villages and that means there are many with narrow small-town attitudes. You will always be a foreigner to the locals even if you stay for years.
  
  Someone has said before - you pay a high price for security and stability in Switzerland.
