Would you
prefer to get away from the 'Retirement Villages' and the usual
popular
retirement areas yet find substantial, low-cost housing (with NO
property taxes)?
Do you prefer to
stay near to your dear family, but (wink) not too near?
Would you enjoy
an exotic 'foreign' location that the family could easily and
eagerly visit?
Prefer a
'foreign' location with a minimum of communication challenges and a
maximum
of friendly people?
Want to make a
move that is relatively easy?
Looking to
retire in a location that is convenient to US Veteran
services and Health Care?
Hoping to
find a country with better than average health care?
Looking for
a country with a stable 'Dollar' and an 'American' community that is
not yet TOO popular?
Are any of these
on your retirement 'To Do' list:
Tour out of the way exotic locales, Work on your tan at a variety of
Blue-Water beaches,
Beachcomb, Swim, Snorkle, Scuba, Fish (deep sea or lake),
Visit the
only Tropical Rain Forest in
the US
Park System, Visit underwater eco-systems, Take Catamaran and Sea Tours,
Visit Old
Spanish Ruins and Towns, Take low-cost Caribbean Cruises without
first flying to the port, Take
Weekend getaways on a variety of Caribbean Islands, Golf, Enjoy both
casual and fine dining, Visit
Casinos, Visit Quaint 'old-town' shops or shop the new malls, Rub
shoulders with friendly 'locals'
during a myriad of colorful pueblo festivals throughout the
year?
From Andrew
Many popular retirement areas will certainly fit your wishes, but you may
find that Puerto Rico (in particular, the
Hatillo /
Isabella area) comes out on top when the choices are
considered.
I researched many foreign tropical climes as well as much of Puerto
Rico for retirement and found that the
conveniences and offerings of the northwest coast filled nearly all
of my needs and desires for routine requirements as
well
as adventure......... (I even found some really good pizza
nearby!).
:) I entertained the thought for many years
and
now I find that I am living in a Corona commercial!
There are, of course, many challenges but I find that the benefits
and pleasures far outweigh the negatives. I
have
retired to Hatillo in early June, 2005 and I look forward to many
additional years here. You may find that Puerto
Rico
is laid-back but young at heart as well as active and growing in
many areas.
A great number of your favorite stores (from fashion to computer to
home centers) are available with a short
drive.
If you may be considering retiring to a Tropical Paradise, I will be
happy to answer your questions and provide
details of what may be reasonably expected with retirement to Puerto
Rico. (No, I am not a real estate agent nor do I
represent the Chamber of Commerce, so you will get the scoop on the
down-side, also!)
A Google search of Puerto Rico locales will bring a world of
information as will some of the links to sites on my
'Links and Info' Page. A 'walk'
through the Real Estate for Sale section at clasificadosonline.com
will
provide an
indication of the types and sizes of houses available throughout
Puerto Rico. A variety of old casas and villas as well
as
new construction in gated communities are available - most at still
reasonable prices.
