With a population of just 263,102, Nawabshah may be the 27th largest city in Pakistan, but it's hardly a cosmopolitan hub. The region's electoral politics are dominated by influential local families, while the bureaucracy is a persistent headache. And let's not forget the climate - Nawabshah is considered one of the hottest cities in Pakistan, with temperatures soaring above 50°C (122°F) for months on end. If you can handle the heat and the red tape, this city in the heart of Sindh province might work. But for most, the reality check is that Nawabshah is better suited for the hardiest of expats.
