Tashkent - Post Report Question and Answers
What is the relative size of the expatriate community? How would you describe overall morale among expatriates?
It seems ok, there is an internations branch. - Aug 2022
It's a small-medium community; about 60 direct hires, and their families. Lots of LARGE families (4+ kids) and kids of all ages. Morale is great, and gatherings/dinners/events always have a great turnout. - Sep 2018
The expat community is small enough that most people know most people either through work or through the school. There are embassy employees, the UN, UNICEF, the EU, business employees from GM, Korean companies, school teachers, oil companies, and others. I would suggest morale was generally good. Tashkent is affordable and safe, so good for families. It is remote and can be expensive to travel into and out of, and always feels like central Asia, so you can't escape your reality much. - Aug 2018
