bangkok popular expat location Bangkok is one of the most popular areas for expats. The city has a great deal going on and the cost of living is low compared to other capital cities. Other areas of the country such as Chiang Mai, Pattaya and Phuket are also popular destinations.

It is only roads in remote areas that are not in good condition and it is possible to get almost anywhere in the country by public transport.
