Hi there,

Life is quite basic in Port Harcourt.

Traffic most times due to the never ending road repairs.

I would recommend you live in Woji or the Old GRA. Basically because i know these areas well and they double for quiet and secure neighborhoods.

Schooling? there is a lot to choose from. I might need to get back to you on this though.

In the meantime, forums like nairaland.com will be of great help to you too.

Cheers!
