Looking for the perspective of anyone that has lived anywhere in the USA and moved to Puerto Rico. What’s it like, what’s different, what’s nicer, what was unexpected, and would you recommend the move?

    Thanks! That’s what I’m hoping for. My situation is that my income will be fine, just gotta figure out where to go. I like warm weather, Caribbean Latino Culture, beaches, mountains, communities, and having an airport to catch flights. I’m thinking a ruralish area in PR might be it. The Internet also says it has a pretty low cost of living.

        CR has been on my retirement radar for a while. It remains to be seen how viable that thought is once global warming and sea level rise really ramp over the next 20-30y.

        I was going to suggest the same. That’s our most likely choice for emigration.
