Q: I am moving to Shanghai! Would anybody have suggestions on a good location for apartments?

My company has factories about 30 minutes north of the city and they provide a shuttle service back and forth to there from the Shanghai city area.

I am still currently in USA but would like to start checking a few apts. online.

I would appreciate any advise!

I would like to add a couple of things.  I am alone so a small one bedroom with decent proximity to groceries and restaurants.

Hi Victoria,

I think my budget will depend on how much I like the apartment.  I dont want to share my flat with others!.. My company provides a shuttle to the office that is located about 30 minutes north of Shanghai.

I am guessing that 3500 - 5000 rmb might be an approximate budget?

Are you familiar with Shanghai?

belle_watson:

You should be able to manage a flat in Shanghai for that kind of money.

I am sure you can find the flat  by that budget.

as victoria quietly lurks in the underbrush, she sets her eyes on her prize.  she quietly maneuvers undetected, ready to pounce on the innocent expat arriving in her domain...

My friend had a small one bed place near the Shanghai Expo location. Right next to the metro station. 1700 per month excluding utilities.

bryan.mcminn:

that sounds extremely reasonable!

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
