Hi Neha
Nice you think to move to UK
I studied and been there for nearly 3 years. and I really loved the place and still wish to be there
I really luv the cold and esp the attitude of people
You can rally be around with nice english ppl and I feel they have wonderful attitude in this world even in small such things
BUT some ppl might have got different hingking abt this but I was around only good ones. S i think u might see many nice ppl there
And social activities are never like here in USA because of the weather all shops are cloased at 5. You cant even go for any shopping mostly after 5 in usuall cities. But still u can go like sainsburries, walart shopping. But they are not like this here in US. only moslty ahving groceries.
Anyway this differes from everycity. As the wearhter is too bad soemtimes you might want to be always inside home. But thats upto you
Next you cant find Indians many in any cities. But more north Indians aere there who is bron n brought up atleast their kids.
In job wise, there was hige recession I dont really know how its been cured now?
And there are really quite best places to see. liem Europe.But if you expect liek here in california, LA, florida sorry you wont get that much
These are all my ideas probs you might see more goods and bads
So my point for US and UK

USA UK
SOCIAL ACTIVITES 90 40
JOBS 70 55
PLACES (entertainment) 90 40
(natural scenic) 40 100
TEMPLES 100 50
CHANCES TO SEE OUR PPL 100 60
WEATHER 80 40

But its upto u to decide

Dependent can work at any status your spouse in
Eevn he is a student, wokring or whatever
Thats really a huge benefit in UK
But most of teh work you can get in shops as part time but still you can get soem call centre jobs
I dont think companies will accept this. As there are not many jobs. But still you can for companies too, if ther eis no probs for them
In my point if u r really serious, please analyse the job market there before u go and settled. The cost is so expensive cpmpared to here I feel.
You need to withstand that. I hope i am not scaring you but as friend I want to tell everything frnakly, so the decision is urs

I was a student there so I felt thats so expensive. If ur husband is in Good job, I hope u dont need to bother abt it

I shall check it.
