As a very sociable expat who's been living here for the past 2 years, and with still no friends outside of work, I can say it's HARD making friends in Antwerp.

The city is beautiful, and quaint enough that you can bike from end to end in 10-15 minutes. Because it's a student town there's also a lot to do here, even for non-students. By West-European standards the prices are reasonable. Pretty much everyone speaks English fairly well, and Dutch is not too hard to pick up on. The location of Leiden in the Netherlands is also neat: 10 min by train to The Hague, 20-ish to Schiphol Airport, 30 min to Rotterdam, 40-ish

Great restaurants, Broadway plays (!), and in the summer you frequently can catch a free concert.
