What do I need to know before retiring in Coronado?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Coronado, they said...
"Expats considering retiring in Coronado should be aware that the cost of living is relatively low compared to other countries. It is important to research the local laws and regulations to ensure that all necessary paperwork is in order. Additionally, it is important to familiarize oneself with the local culture and customs to ensure a smooth transition. Healthcare is also an important factor to consider, as there are both public and private healthcare options available. Finally, it is important to research the local housing market to find the best option for one's needs," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Coronado, Panama.
"Panama is NOT a good place for people with a "Service Dog" or a "Guide Dog". In general, many people are scared of all dogs because most dogs in Panama are GUARD DOGS for their property. Panama is behind the times in its thinking about "Service Dogs". In Canada (and the USA) all Service and Guide dogs are accepted everywhere. People who have such a "partner" really need that dog in their life. He is their "lifeline". They are highly trained and do not bother other people. Their main interest is the care of their owner! They DO NOT have "accidents" and they do not bother other people. 99% of the time they are very friendly with all people they meet. In Canada & USA the Service Dogs are fully accepted and allowed to go everywhere their owner wants to go. That includes all stores, clinics, businesses and restaurants. This is a fact of the 20th Century. Panama needs to catch up! These dogs are highly trained and get to need their owner as much as the owner needs them," commented one expat who made the move to Coronado, Panama.
