Is the Dominican republic a good place to live? |
Travel Info Is the Dominican republic a good place to live? Travel Tips I lived there 10 months and I think it is a wonderful place to live if you can rough it a little. It is hot and electricity goes out almost every day, so you suffer a little and food in the frig goes bad quickly, which you can avoid by purchasing an inverter or generator or both (not cheap). BUT it is beautiful, the people are friendly and the dancing is great. There are lots of great outdoors activities in the mountains or beach. Spanish is a must. You can deal with the crime by avoiding dangerous places, always calling a taxi rather than flagging one down, and traveling in groups late at night. Use common sense and you will have a wonderful life! Food is expensive at restaurants unless they are restaurants where locals eat and anything imported from US costs more than it would if you had purchased it here. No poisonous snakes! always a plus in a tropical place. Rent is inexpensive. Others +only if you are educated bilingual have ample supply of cash............................. No!!!!! There are right now 50 deaths per 100,000 people in that country. To put that in perspective there are only 30 per 100,000 in Iraq and there is a war going on there. yes.it is a nice. place very cheap and confortable,people is kind.if you are rich evey part of the world is wonderfull.Believe me It appears it can be. You can get a place for a reasonable amount of money. Provided you have your own business or a job which is in demand there (and you can speak Spanish), I'd say there is a future for you. While crime can be an issue, so can living in many other major cities or even some not so major cities in the US. Just be responsible and cautious. It also helps if you spend a short period there doing some no-so-touristy stuff and see if it's something you can handle. Good luck. If you have money is the best place in the world ... honestly I would had not inmigrated to the US if I would have had money over there. Most of the money is property of the corrupted politicians. Hell yeah!! My uncle lives there, fantastic!! Did I mention he comes from england... Still dreams that they rule the world I must add... Cheers!! |
