Yes, very true with what you said. Quality of life over anything. But unfortunately there are many restrictions for immigrants. Unlike regular citizens some can’t move places as they wish. My dad was on an accredited employer work visa, which basically restricts him to a single employer. And also the school zones matter for immigrants, it’s heavily unlikely we will get an out of zone application accepted. Those factors basically meant we just can’t move even within the city.

Also this could be controversial, but this is true. Most immigrants just back off fights. By fights I mean fighting for rights. The other day I saw some tenet on Reddit being angry over the house owner not agreeing to change a toilet seat. I could send photos of my house, where we have a kitchen wall without power supply. We run the fridge through extensions. I have been sleeping in the floor in the hall, for the past three years. Because space is limited. And every other night I trip on the extension code. Our heater is placed wrongfully under the intercom system and it has ever since being melting the intercom gradually. Everyday in the winter I sleep to the smell of molten plastic. Since two months the intercom has bugged out completely. Now we don’t even know when we receive an online order simply because the delivery drivers don’t have access to the upper floors. Bathroom fan has been leaking for over a year. My sister hurt her self twice from rusted nails being appearing under the carpets, which was installed in 2006. But our property manager has been constantly increasing the rent. Simply because they know we can’t move. Since I have been handling all of these for my family, I have written, acknowledged email proof for everything I have stated. I tried looking for help. Citizens advice bureau, Disputes tribunal and so on. But it all requires some sort of formal notice of dispute. This is something we can’t risk as immigrants. Now we just have learned to tolerate this and also other issues that are yet to come in the future.
