Coronado, Panama
Pros and Cons of Living in Coronado
Last updated on Jul 04, 2023
Summary: The pros of living in Coronado, Panama include its beautiful beaches, lush tropical forests, and close proximity to Panama City. Additionally, the cost of living is relatively low and the area is known for its friendly locals. On the other hand, the infrastructure in Coronado is not as developed as other parts of Panama, and the area can be prone to flooding during the rainy season. Additionally, the local economy is largely dependent on tourism, so job opportunities may be limited.
What are the pros and cons of living in Coronado?
Expats, digital nomads and retirees living in Coronado responded:
"Expats and digital nomads living in Coronado enjoy the laid-back atmosphere, the beautiful beaches, and the low cost of living. They also appreciate the friendly locals and the easy access to amenities like grocery stores, restaurants, and banks. On the downside, some expats and digital nomads find the lack of public transportation and the slow internet speeds to be a challenge. Additionally, the hot and humid climate can be difficult to adjust to for some," said one member in Coronado.
"I find the Coronado Panama area to have lot's of amenities & friendly native people. Most everything we need is here, but if not, it is a 1.5 hour drive to Panama City. Wish the beaches had bigger waves! Love that the currency is the US dollar," remarked one expat in Coronado.
