Expat population in Udon area
I've been told there are around 3000 expats living in the Udon area and I'm curious, 1) is it true 2) where does everybody hang out? 3) where are the expats from?

From the 2000 census the total population of Udon Thani Province was 1.5million.
The population of Udon Thani municipal area was 415,000. Where the boundary of the municipal area is, who knows.
There was another census done just a few months ago, but it is not likely that that data will start appearing for a few more years.

There most be quite a few expats living in Udon (city) I've only lived here for 3 weeks, but I've been out and about shopping (see shopping posts), I've spotted many other expats, the older guys tend to give a friendly nod and I like wise, but the majority don't even smile or acknowledge you exist, I have worked in many different countries, the only other country I've experienced this level of rude behaviour was when I lived in Sweden, Stockholm. Maybe the expats I see are Swedes?

I agree wholeheartedly about the expats not being friendly here in Udon. I've been here only a few months and noticed it.
So come on you miserable old b@#$%^*s out there, start smiling at each other and being more friendly.

ps
For those friendly old b@#$%^*s out there, keep smiling, you're doing a good job

Iam certainly one of the few that do acknowledge others I would like to go back 4. 5 our 6 years the people around then that are still in and around udon todaybeer monkey wrote:i wonder if the one's that smile and nod are members on this forum, and the one's that don't are not, or the other way round.
may be UD members could have a "special" hand-shake...lol
Where on the hole mostly friendly
There seems to be too many inflated ego.s around today misfits from every country
I have never been a hanger on I think keeping ones self to ones self seems to have worked fine for me
There is a lot of backbiting going on at the moment which is fun to watch but I do feel sorry for some of the better guys caught up in it

I've not been out to any of the bars yet, I've been stuck at home setting the business side up and having a little un with no baby sitter available is limiting for going out, but hopefully this will be sorted out soon.
I went to Big C yesterday, it's strange the TW or GF of the expats usually come over to talk to TW and ask about the little un and where I'm from, but the guys just disappear, maybe I look like I have a mental condition when I smile and nod.
