Where should I live in St. James?

We asked digital nomads and expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:

"Finding a place to live in St. James involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget and what type of accommodation you are looking for. This could range from a single room to a full house, depending on your needs and financial capability. Next, you should research the area to understand the neighborhood, its safety, proximity to amenities like shops, schools, hospitals, and public transportation. Once you have a clear idea of what you want, you can start your search. There are several online platforms where you can find listings for rentals or properties for sale in St. James, such as Property Finder TT, Terra Caribbean, and Trinidad Real Estate. You can also engage the services of a real estate agent who is familiar with the area. They can help you find properties within your budget, arrange viewings, and handle negotiations with landlords or sellers. Remember to inspect any potential homes thoroughly. Check for any signs of damage, ask about utilities, and try to meet the neighbors if possible. Once you've found a place you like, you'll need to go through the process of signing a lease or purchasing the property. This usually involves providing proof of income, references, and possibly a deposit. Finally, once all the paperwork is done, you can move into your new home in St. James, Trinidad & Tobago," said one person in St. James.
