With a population of just 30,176, Corinth is a small Greek city that offers a fraction of the amenities and opportunities of Athens. The rebuilt Roman city has seen its fair share of natural disasters, with major earthquakes devastating the town in 1858 and 1928. And while the port provides some economic activity, the narrow Corinth Canal has failed to live up to its promise as a major shipping hub. Bureaucracy is a persistent headache, as evidenced by the city's complex municipal structure. For those seeking a laidback, provincial lifestyle, Corinth may fit the bill - but it's hardly the vibrant, fast-paced destination that will satisfy most international transplants.
