Become a Local: Get to Know Your New City

Regardless of whether or not you’re new to a city, few renters truly consider themselves to be “locals.” Just think about it:  how often do you truly take the time to explore your city? It’s no secret that since so many of us are constantly in a rush to get from point A to point B, we sometimes overlook the excitement and wonder that our cities have to offer. So, why not pledge to take a “day-cation” this year – and truly get to know your stomping grounds? Here are a few great ways to get you acquainted with all your city has to offer!

 

 

Consider alternate forms of transportation. If you regularly travel the city via public transit, consider touring through town on a bike if your city is bike-friendly. In addition to providing exercise, a bike will allow you to navigate yourself through a different route, allowing you to take in new surroundings. If biking isn’t for you, walking is another reliable alternative to help discover hidden gems and explore with your senses! Smell the bread as you pass by bakeries, listen to talented street performers and view parts of the city that you might not have noticed before. From smaller paths that you never knew existed, to hole-in-the-wall restaurants, you might be surprised at where the city will take you!

As you probably know, one of the best ways to become a local is to actually learn from the locals themselves. Rather than visiting chain restaurants and shops, consider locally-owned boutiques and mom-and-pop restaurants, which will provide exposure to your city’s unique style. Purchasing items from the farmers market within your area will also allow you to connect with locals and introduce you to the food products that your city is best known for.

Although a city’s architecture and landmarks might make it attractive, the people of the city are what truly makes it one-of-a-kind. Therefore, get to know your neighbors! Consider joining local clubs, or volunteering at an organization. Not only will your community benefit, but doing so also presents an excellent opportunity to meet other locals who might share similar hobbies or interests. Attending block parties, street fairs, and festivals are other fantastic ways to participate in your city’s celebrations and get to know your neighbors.

Lastly, reading local newspapers will allow you to stay up-to-date with recent events in your neighborhood or city. Read local blogs and reviews about shops around you to get a better feel for what’s nearby! Local bloggers can also provide you with honest opinions in addition to reviews and feedback about places that you might be unsure of yourself. For all you know, the best places in town could possibly just be around the corner!

The cities that we live in are all filled with delicious culinary delights and fascinating people. However, it’s up to you to explore your city and see what it has to offer! So, the next time that you decide to take a stroll around town, consider the famous idiom: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
