Modena - Post Report Question and Answers

This is an interesting expat area. There are really two types of expats: Single guys who work for the Ferrari F1 team; and older, more settled families, who work for TetraPak (the two biggest employers in the area). I would say because of that, this city works best for both families and singles, but is very difficult for couples. It took over a year for my husband and I to be connected into and a real part of the singles group- which was best for us, as they were the ones who tended to live in the city and were more active in meeting up for dinner/drinks or having outings. Families tended to stick to the suburbs and had many activities with the international school and children. - Sep 2014
