I am applying to teach in china from next Feb, and am soon going to have to state a preferance for where I would like to live. I have decided that a large city has the most appeal for me, and have narrowed myself down to Beijing and Shanghai. Anyone got any insider advice or information to help me with my choice??!!

There aremany large cities in China. Do some research before deciding. Both these places have their attractions but are heavily polluted with appalling traffic. They're also the most expensive.
Look more widely: try posting on the China forums here or elsewhere. PM me for more.

As far as I know, Beijing is cheaper but Shanghai is more modern. Personally if I went back to China, I'd go for Shanghai. It's not that polluted (not compared to other Chinese cities)!
