What do I need to know before retiring in Dominican Rep?

"Expats should research the cost of living in the Dominican Republic before retiring there. It is important to understand the local laws and regulations, as well as the tax implications of living in the Dominican Republic. Expats should also familiarize themselves with the local culture and customs, as well as the language. Additionally, it is important to have a good understanding of the healthcare system and the availability of medical services. Finally, expats should research the availability of housing and other amenities in the area they plan to retire in," wrote a member who made the move to Dominican Rep.

"Be prepared to adjust. Be prepared to be frustrated and to want to smack your head into the wall. But also be prepared to find the small joys here!! The people are remarkably friendly and helpful. There are many many good people but that takes time to get to know who they are. You won't find them in your first few months here!!!!! After 11 years I am still learning so much. I live in a typical middle class Dominican neighborhood! I am the only expat and I love my life here. 11 years of business and consulting and I pretty much know how to get things done..... but every single day I learn something new!!!," explained one expat living in Santo Domingo, Dominican Rep.
