And me, I'm just moving out, after 15 years in Warsaw, because I hate it. I agree that it's mostly safe, but green, or clean? And the public transportation is a mixed bag, my daily commute to the office used to be 1h each way (around 6 miles distance). Cost of living is ridiculously high compared to the rest of Poland, software engineers, businessmen and celebrities are probably the only ones who really can afford it. But the main reason I'm leaving is because people here are assholes. As a capital city of Poland Warsaw attracts the worst kind of scum, politicians, wannabe celebrities, con men, corporate drones, gold diggers, etc. If I could have one wish it would be for Putin to nuke Warsaw.

As for people - just like any large city, it depends on which bubble you're in.

  I spent 15 years here, had like 5-6 software engineering jobs, moved a few times to a different neighborhood, tried different social activities (sports, arts, dance lessons, online dating, etc.) and in the end the people always turned out the same. But maybe I'm just unlucky...

He will certainly nuke Dresden first. Because he used to live there. Also, the relevant NATO simulations start with the first nukes arriving from Kaliningrad (Königsberg) to North Dresden. Warsaw is a bit later in this game. In the end all is down.
