Well, I don't understand why Jianshuo thinks "good public transportation" in Shanghai is an "exception". Actually in all the cities in US (except New York), the public transportation system is very poor, you never expect you can rely on public transportation here in US. I believe it's the same in Europe. While in Shanghai, i can go anywhere i can think of by bus or metro.

About the communication, maybe it's not Shanghai's problem. nobody should expect local people to learn your culture/language. so it's always expat's responsibility to be more active to learn...and actually that's part of the purposes of their living in Shanghai (to experience more culture difference and to learn more).
