It's legally a bi-lingual city, so people don't have to speak english. The summer is brutal. It's like 95 and 100% humidity and you can count on torrential rain between 3-4pm every day. I mean like the streets turn in to rivers for about an hour, your car gets flooded, and then it clears and gets back to 95.

Cockroaches the size of fucking rats. So many, that every 5 years you have to have your house completely covered in tarps and gassed. Probably the worst drivers on the planet.

Other than that it's great.
