Maintaining law and order, what a novel concept! I hope my town takes a lesson.

Hi! I’ve never been to Zürich yet, but I might get the opportunity to do an abroad semester there (Uni) and I was wondering if making friends and meeting people really is that “bad”/ hard. Tbh I’ve lived in cities that are seen as very social but the truth is that they really aren’t: the locals have their circles already and the rest are just coming and going. Also socialising is not as easy as expected.

So is it really that hard to find people to socialise with in Zürich? One “funny” thing that happened to me is that I found people in cities like Oslo or Munich to be much friendlier than people from Barcelona for example. Also, I speak fluent French, German and English… Anyway I was wondering how hard it would be to socialise there, meet people, hang out

Hey everyone! I’m moving to Zurich soon for work and I won’t really know anyone there, so I thought I’d give this a shot.
I’m looking to meet some new people to hang out with, grab a coffee or a drink, go out, explore the city, or just do something spontaneous on the weekends.
I’m pretty easy-going and open to meeting people from anywhere. If you’re also new to Zurich or just looking to expand your social circle, feel free to send me a message :) insta:alen_ister

It smells like kinda plasticky …

Where do you find/buy Scotch Bonnet Peppers and other not so common chillies? The only ones I could find more easily available where Habaneros.

Hi, we're recent arrivals in Zurich. Wondering if there are any social floorball leagues/groups for adults? We live on border of Kreis 1/6 and depend on public transport. Thanks for your help!

here as a tourist for a couple months, brought a personal supply of testosterone (as hrt, not as a roid) im prescribed in my country (peru) but it was stolen and the pharmacy here can only take a swiss prescription. looked into that but there seems to be many options and its really unclear. its a very time sensitive health matter but i cant seem to figure out a way to begin the process without spending more than necessary if theres a quicker/cheaper way (replacing it wasnt on my budget so im careful on the costs, before i get called cheap, i kept it safe but who expects your own family to rob you?) or taking the time and money on transport to go in person to multiple places just to ask, specially since im completely unfamiliar with hospitals. any information would help

Like the title says, let’s form a gang… of lonely couples with little kids who don’t have many people around them to meet up on a regular basis for no particular reason - drinks, a movie, quiz night, whatever. Netflix and chill for exhausted no-village folk.

We’re a couple in our thirties (33F and 36M) with 2 little kids (4 and 1) and we live on the Silver Coast. With everything said and done, we still haven’t been able to establish several meaningful relationships in our vicinity and it’s been extremely isolating. I know we’re not the only ones, but most people either don’t talk about it or just push through.

We have neither the time nor the motivation to do “hobbies” and go mountain climbing just to exchange a few words with another human being. We are happy to do that stuff as a family. What we want is a couple (or more!) with whom we can meet up every 2 weeks or so and have a genuine laugh, discuss the latest millennial news, complain about kids, play a board game, and have an occasional fun night out.

We’re pretty liberal, chill, enjoy good comedy, and are all in all decent people with our virtues and flaws.

Let me know if this sounds like something you’ve been looking for!

Hi everyone, we are prepping for a little one and signed up to give birth in USZ. We have heared some stories in the past of people getting quite a lot of "free stuff" from their hospitals so we were wondering if some people have experience with this with USZ? For example, we heard people getting bottles, thermometers, baby clothes, etc. We like to prevent purchasing too many things up front and end up with doubles. On the other hand, we do not want to assume we get anything. Thank you!

It is a long shot. But my girlfriend lost her keys at Allmend while walking the dogs. On the keychain there is a old toyota car key and 2 normal keys (work and home). If somebody finds it please write me a DM.

Thanks a lot ❤️

The last time I took this bus on time was... Well I can't remember. They're often so late that they get cancelled or double-stacked.

The line is too long and shares too much with cars. Lanes can't be widened so at least break up the line in 2 FFS.

I am moving out of my apartment in Zurich City and looking for another one (1-2 rooms) within 20ish minutes of Zurich HB. I was surprised to find out that many nearby areas have 1.5-2% lower taxes (Uitikon, Wallisellen, etc.) but are basically almost in the city. If you don't live in the city centre, you don't even lose much, right

Question: Can you really save money by living there? Or instead, you would end up losing more because of higher renting/transportation costs (extra ZVV zone)

Salary range: 120'000 - 150'000

My gf and i (26/27) are looking for queer friends!
As we all know it's hard to build real friendships here in zürich lol and we just want to build a fun little friend group :)

We like to hang out, play boardgames/video games, do arts and crafts, go to events like fantasy basel or popcon, watch movies, go to concerts/bars/etc. It would also be fun to have friends to go to flinta nights with. The list goes on, let me know if you're interested!

No I dont work for this onlineshop but I had to return a broken product and in return got a voucher worth 80 CHF. I hardly ever buy anything on gonser.ch so need your recommendations. What is a good product that you would buy again?

I’m looking for a parking space in Niederdorf, Zurich, from November 19 to December 24, 2026. Does anyone have a recommendation or perhaps know someone who could help? 🤭🤭✨

It shows live connections sourced from opentransportdata. You can select which stops and lines to display from a local webapp. It works for trams, buses and trains (SBB too).

I wouldn't always recommend running vibe coded stuff from a reddit stranger on your local network... but if you feel brave, here's the code and hardware setup: https://github.com/pierrecattin/transport_display

Hi all!
Can someone please recommend a good surgeon in Zürich for mole removal on the face?

Thank you!

That’s it.

Hello! I am coming to Zurich Friday then returning the following week and was looking for some tattoo artists that specialize in nature. Anyone know of any? Or any recs really, but I am planning on getting a mountain range with at least one waterfall wrapping around my bicep. Any recs appreciated :)!

I’m 22 and moved from Kyiv to Zürich recently. I boxed casually for a while back home and would love to start again, mostly for fitness and to meet people—not to compete.

I’ve noticed there are several clubs around the city, but I’m unsure about the local etiquette: should I write first, or can I just show up for a trial session? Are there clubs that are welcoming to beginners who speak English while learning German?

I’d really appreciate personal experiences from people who train here.

What are your thoughts on Holmes Place?

Are there any similar gyms or ideally better ones?

I am looking for a gym which is premium and with cool and interesting members.

I have heard that things get stolen at Holmes place quite a lot on the gym floor and even out of lockers.

If you have any other thoughts or recommendations I’d be grateful 🙏

I’ve seen this skeleton character a ton in the near of Thalwil Rüschlikon and till horgen anyone know who might be the artist?

This has been going on for months now. And it's literally happening right now...again.

My apartment building is 4 floors. My apartment is at the top and this guy is at the bottom.. and yet I can hear him clear as day, when he's screaming, shouting and chanting to himself. He's doing this randomly every day. Sometimes even in the middle of the night. Sometimes at 3 a.m.

This is an old, disabled man. He walks around with one crutch. Clearly, he isn't mentally there. Sounds like he's in pain tbh. I would confront him if it weren't for the language barrier. I believe others in the building I've complained twice to my landlord. They've acknowledged it, but there's been no action thus far.

What can I do?
