How does Taichung stack up to Taipei? I've heard some good things about Taichung and the wages seem to be as good or better than in Taipei. But, I do like big cities and the social and entertainment possibilities that come with them. Also, how is the cost of living in Taichung compared with Taipei?

The cost of living in Taichung is considerably lower than in Taipei. The weather is nicer (not sure if that is a factor) and there are many entertainment possibilities.

As for socialization....I tried a couple years ago to get social club going, but I was the only person who ever showed up for any of the events. A couple months after I gave up another person tried, but with the same result.

I've found Taipei (when I visit it) to offer far more vis-a-vis socializing.
