What's it like living here Asian young professional

I am an Asian Female young professional in mid-20s. I will likely be offered a job in the hospital. My partner may or may not join me depending on his work arrangement. I was just wondering what is it like here? Mainly I would like to know about transport and renting

1. Transport

I don’t drive, therefore need to rely on public transport and taxi. I heard that there is never Uber available. How reliable are the taxis?

Can they come on-time if you book them to come immediately or pre-book them?

I have night shifts. Is it practical to order a taxi every night I finish my shift?

2. Renting

What is the renting market like? I plan to join a flat with existing working professionals. I had experience renting with landlords in mid-50s and she was super nice. So, I am also considering the living with landlord option.

Is it hard to find accommodation like this? What sort of price range am I expecting for a couple like us?

In terms of areas, what areas are considered safer areas that are not too far from the hospital?

It will be greatly appreciated if you can comment honestly about what's it like living here. Thank you!

Letter to the editor of the Wairarapa Daily Times, 100 years ago today ... seems nothing changes, except perhaps the style of writing
