Just to bump this one up for 2011, a lead article in the China Daily this morning reports that according to PSB statistics, there are approximately 400,000 foreigners in China, legally domiciled with full documentation. Obviously that report did not include the large contingents from Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
