With a population of over 584,000, this is no quaint village. The main economic activity is subsistence farming, so don't expect a thriving job market or modern amenities. The climate is adequate for crops, with rainfall between 700-1,000 mm per year, but the bureaucracy can be a persistent headache. Unless you're content with a rural, agricultural lifestyle, Buseresere is not the place for you.
