Living in Poland is harder than in US, Canada or Australia, no doubt. But at least Poland isn't as boring as US for example. Additionally you live among your kind not blacks or mexicans

Well maybe NYC, Chicago, SF and Boston aren't boring but the rest of US surely is. I can't imagine living in the middle of nowhere 40km from the city centre. Yes you have big houses but what's the advantage of them if there are no activities to do around you

I mean in Poland you live in disgusting yellow tower blocks but you aren't at least alienated from the rest of humanity like in the american suburb. Think what your child must feel when it doesn't have company to play with. Then when it reaches adulthood it is a social reject. In Poland in ugly (at least from outside) commieblock housing projects you have people around you to befriend with and spend time as opposed to US

I don't think this happens often. Maybe that's the case in some gypsy projects in Slovakia

Seriously when you live in let's say Michigan where there are many PolAms it has to be depressing. The only city in hundred of miles is Detroit and it's totally ridden by crime so what's left? Living in the middle of nowhere with other victims of white flight? It sounds pretty depressing for me

In Poland you have at least 5 "non-boring" cities located not so far from one another so if you live even in shithole like Białystok you still aren't alienated from the external world like in US


You just happened to have noisy neighbours. If it happend so often Poles from city centre/suburbs wouldn't move to blocks

If commieblocks were so ****** polish middle class wouldn't be massively moving to them. Google more

Regular houses, old buildings in the centre, post 89' projects by private developers , twin houses etc.

Yeah but Poles in UK are just there for one simple reason - money. There aren't there to integrate with natives and spend the rest of their lives in UK

PolAms on the other hand are normal American citizens and they are (or were) somehow a victim of cruel jokes. But Poles aren't to blame - rather Jews and Germans

Why French?
