Can the two be matched?
First of all, Zhoushan is actually a place full of opportunities. For many industries, Zhoushan has very favorable policy conditions.
Zhoushan is also a relatively open area. You will basically not encounter xenophobia here. It is very simple to truly integrate into the lives of Zhoushan people.
To put it bluntly, the vast majority of people in Zhoushan are very simple, short-minded and will not be wary of others.
Therefore, there are often reports of news being deceived in Zhoushan.
You will find that there are many opportunities to start a business in Zhoushan, the labor here is relatively low, and the competition is not fierce.
As long as you are willing to endure hardships, it will be easy to gain a foothold in Zhoushan.
But if you are not here to start a business, but are looking for a job, then it depends on whether your job is suitable.
Zhoushan currently has a large employment gap, but this large gap is often concentrated in two areas, one is the high-end area.
Zhoushan City recruits high-level talents from abroad every year. When these talents come to Zhoushan, they give them money and housing in case they run away.
The other is labor. There is a shortage of labor in many places in Zhoushan. People are needed on construction sites and fishing boats.
However, it is difficult for ordinary mid-level talents to come to Zhoushan, and job opportunities are very scarce.
The key thing is that compared with other cities, you will find that the salary of this job is a level lower.
Finally, there is the issue of consumption.
Consumption in Zhoushan is indeed a bit high, but not outrageous.
It's just that the prices in Zhoushan are similar to those in Ningbo next door, making them less competitive.
However, if friends who like to eat seafood come to Zhoushan, they can eat the freshest seafood.
I hope I can help you. It depends on your occupation, so there is no guarantee.
I have many friends from other places who have good incomes and have settled here.
Zhoushan is a city with an island as a prefecture-level city, which is typically low-income and high-consumption.
If you don’t have any skills, I don’t recommend you come.
The cost of living is really high.
I am the son-in-law of Zhoushan and now live in Dinghai. Let me say a few words.
Zhoushan is a place with few factories and few employment opportunities.
If you come to work from other places, the monthly salary is about 4,000, which is very good, such as in the Sannong Wholesale Market.
If social security is excluded, 3,000 per month is enough for personal living expenses.
If you want a higher salary, you can do heavy physical work, such as unloading trucks, or apply for a job as a security guard who works two shifts for more than 10 hours a day.
If you are more educated, you need to be a mid-level or above talent, who may be able to do well and have room for development.
Zhoushan is a place that attaches great importance to talents. If foreign talents start their own businesses, there will be many preferential policies.
In Zhoushan, those with the highest wages are probably fishermen.
But you have to get a fisherman's license and go fishing on a boat. I heard you can earn tens of thousands a month.
But not everyone can do this job, it is very hard.
Secondly, the benefits of civil servants in Zhoushan are very good. Compared with those in the north, the welfare benefits of civil servants are very good.
In my next life, I want to take the civil service exam. After retirement, I won’t be able to spend all my pension.
Ha ha!
How is the consumption in Zhoushan?
High, really high!
I have traveled to many places in the south and north, and found that the consumption in Zhoushan is really high.
When talking about prices, I thought that maybe Zhoushan is an archipelago, with few fields, and most of the vegetables and other vegetables have to be shipped from other places. Because of the high cost, they are sold more expensive.
In fact, if you just want to work, I don’t recommend coming to Zhoushan, because the wages and consumption do not match at all, and you will not have much money left after a year.
Furthermore, electric tricycles are prohibited in the city here in Zhoushan, making it difficult to set up a stall and do small business.
But if you just want to do a small business, you have to rent a store and pay tens of thousands of rent a year, which makes it even more difficult to make money.
In the past, I thought that Zhoushan is close to the sea and it is convenient to eat seafood when I come to Zhoushan.
Because my hometown is also by the sea, I still like seafood.
However, when I came to Dinghai, I found that the seafood here was not as diverse as in my hometown town.
The thing is, it's extremely expensive.
If you really want to eat seafood, go to the Shenjiamen area, where there is an abundance of seafood.
However, if you want to eat seafood, you should always remember one thing: seafood at the seaside is not necessarily cheap.
After settling in Zhoushan, my biggest emotion is that the air here in Zhoushan is good and the winter is not too cold. It is a good place to retire.
And the scenery here is pretty good, so you can drive around and play around if you have nothing to do.
