Is this a good city for single people? For couples? For families? Why or why not?
This can be a great post for all people. The ones who have the hardest time are sometimes singles, but many single people have a great group of friends and really take advantage of what there is to offer in the country. It really depends on your attitude, your ability to 'make your own adventure' and whether you have special needs or preferences that can't be met. - Aug 2025
This is better for families. There are not many single people here. Local custom is that Togolese generally do not date expats. I'm sure there are a few exceptions but I do not know of anyone. - Mar 2019
Good for anyone with a good attitude. - Feb 2019
Not at all good for single people. Good for families. I was there alone with my husband and needed to get a pet since he was working a lot and I spent a lot of time alone in the huge house. But we did got closer and stronger as a couple. - Sep 2017
