Maijdi, Bangladesh

Moving to Maijdi? Good luck - the population of 132,185 means you'll be fighting for space and resources in this crowded city. And that's just the start of the challenges. Mujibur Rahman, the army officer executed for allegedly assassinating the president, was born here in 1953. His story underscores the persistent bureaucratic and security headaches that plague Bangladesh. Unless you have a high tolerance for red tape and the occasional political unrest, Maijdi may not be the expat destination for you.
