As someone who actually lives here.

Good things include: nice food, diverse places to travel to, socialist programmes to support poor people so they don't die of hunger, simple lifestyle, fast internet connection, okayish job market.

Bad things: a huge population means lots of criminals as well, politicians here loot the poor, the cities are fucked with lots of people, little space to hangout, public transport sucks, culturally regressive society in regards to individual, women and trans rights, people are becoming more violent, Hindu vs Muslim bullshit rather than focus on making things better.

I rate 2.7/5.
