What do I need to know before retiring in Venezuela?

"Im English and have lived in Isla Margarita Venezuela for 15 years. Very happy here. My doctor recommended the island as having one of the best year round climates in the world. I'm 78 now, and fitter, swim in the sea every morning before breakfast. In Porlamar, the mayor has cut down crime and is relatively safe compared to English cities. Plenty in the supermarkets. Prices of imported goods tend to be higher but that's your choice. It's well worth coming to rent an apartment for a month or two and see how you feel .. I teach English here and online.. I miss the cultural side, but my health and well being is more important.. July elections coming up...... see what happens there," commented one expat who made the move to Porlamar, Venezuela.

"In general terms people in this city are nice and kind. But you shouldn't trust everybody. Personal Security must be in your mind everytime you go out especially if you go on foot (without car), because delinquency is a serius issue here. Subway is safer than autobus unlike other countries. And if u have to take the bus avoid western routes. Indeed avoid getting around on the west part of the city and lower class zones because are the most risky," remarked another expat in Caracas, Venezuela.
