"Expats in Budapest often find the language barrier to be the most challenging aspect of the local culture. Many locals speak Hungarian, which is a difficult language to learn for those who are not native speakers. Additionally, the Hungarian culture is quite different from many other cultures, and expats may find it difficult to adjust to the local customs and etiquette. Furthermore, the cost of living in Budapest can be quite high, making it difficult for expats to find affordable housing and other necessities," explained one expat living in Budapest, Hungary.
