hi every one , i try to make a study a bout Cyprus, so the question is:

which is the best city in Cyprus for living, and working ?

plz add your comments by city name.

I would say Paphos (though I've never lived there nor worked there .... just shopped etc).

It's easy to get around, access to great countryside and coast, no water cuts

Agreed. Paphos is definitely the most liveable and beautiful city of Cyprus.

Not a good place if you need to work though. If that is the case, then you are condemned to Nicosia ( a fate worse than death ), or Limassol, which is a vast improvement on the former.

Others please note, that I have not lived in Cyprus. I am giving my opinion as a regular visitor to the island.

Nicosia and Limassol are the two large cities with robust, all-year-round economies and good shopping/entertainment facilities. I think these would be your best bet. Other places in Cyprus depend far more on tourism and the employment opportunities here are more likely to be seasonal.

Paphos , purely for being so close to Stroumbi the Great ! and not far from.... O

My base though is Limassol that I consider the best town in Europe , even the world as far as I'm concerned !!

Limassol is the epicentre of the multiverse, mate.

Yes I was born in Paphos the District. Near Polis to be more precise. But the OP was asking for a City, not a town or village.

I was just comparing it to the other 3 he can choose from (legally) at the moment. Larnaca I dislike, Limassol and Nicosia are great too, but busy and crowded.

Would stay well clear of Paphos if you are thinking of coming to work in Cyprus. i spent a year here and the only decent jobs in Paphos are with the developers and they bad companys to work for. bad pay + the people in those companys are rude and igornant and treat the foreign workers like crap. would stay away from the biggest one on that note aswell. Paphos is a ghost town during the winter and there is nothing to do except go for meals or walks. its a season town booming during the summer and dead during winter. try Nicosia its the biggest city and has alot more to offer.
