Anyone considering moving to my city should be prepared to sit in traffic for longer than they expect, own a small-sized umbrella cause the weather might change anytime and also buy warmer clothes. One thing i forgot to add is that due to the ongoing road constructions, some distances have to be covered on foot.

Port Harcourt is a city bustling with life and swarming with opportunities especially for young people. Its weather is comfortable, however, the rains can be extreme sometimes. The language spoken is mostly pidgin and little bits of Igbo. The road network is relatively bad as you can spend hours on the road due to traffic jam.

My city is very busy. That’s the first thing you should know. The city is overpopulated, so jobs are very scarce. Access to good roads, food and health care is a constant competition. One will have to wake up early or else face an unprecedented traffic congestion. Yet the city is well respected as a business hub with numerous companies and businesses it is home to.

Any person moving here must consider traffic problems we face particularly on weekdays. He must also consider the high cost of living. Then there are environmental issues to consider. such a person must consider that there are flooding issues from time to time during the rainy seasons.

Port Harcourt City is a great City, the only downside to the city is the lack of proper power supply and provision of security measures to protect business owners and shop owners in the city. Another thing one should consider before moving to port Harcourt City is traffic jams during morning hours.

The City of Port Harcourt is a beautiful city, when moving to such a big beautiful city proximity is everything, with rush hour morning traffic its best to leave home early. The city is known its seafood delicacies, delicious soups, rich culture, the city’s centre (New GRA). Weather can be quite unpredictable so an umbrella should be on standby.

There is a lot of fun activities, a lot of road side foods, no much traffic, friendly and caring neighbours. Although there are a lot of pros, there are also some cons. Some neighbours are very nosy and do not like minding their business. There is also a lot of insecurity, as there is a lot of stealing and kidnapping, but other than that, Port Harcourt is a wonderful city.

There’s a lot of traffic. The city has a beautiful landscape and buildings that are worth sightseeing. Moving in May not be very expensive but the cost of feeding may be. It’s a good place for entrepreneurs and startups because the population is much. Transportation costs are not too expensive so generally, you would be able to live in it.

Someone moving to Port Harcourt should know the weather because it rains for about eight (8) out of the twelve (12) months in the year so preparations should be made to purchase essentials such as Umbrellas, Rain Boots, Cardigans, etc.

Port Harcourt is the biggest city in Rivers state so anyone moving here should plan their trips properly to avoid getting stuck in traffic jams especially during peak periods in the morning (7am – 9am) and evening (4pm – 6pm).
