Yes - almost everyone speaks at least some English.

>Do people from other countries and cultures settle in larnaca.

There are quite a few foreigners in Larnaca, especially British.

Cyprus is a very safe place and people are usually quite friendly. However there are occational reports of racist remarks directed against South Asians since many people from Sri Lanka work as gardeners and maids in Cyprus and some people tend to look down on them.
