They didn’t tend to move permanently unless it was a plantation, they were there for a job and moved back after.

They weren’t constantly rotating those positions though? I’m not saying the colonies became fully integrated like how France’s modern colonial empire.

In those places, yea the British contingent were fully segregated from the locals, living in what would now be termed Green Zones. They didn’t mix with the locals.
