Mt. Moritz, Grenada

"Expats moving to Mt. Moritz should be aware that the official language is English, but many locals also speak Grenadian Creole. The local currency is the Eastern Caribbean Dollar, although US dollars are also widely accepted. The cost of living is relatively high compared to other Caribbean islands, especially for housing and imported goods. The climate in Mt. Moritz is tropical, with a wet season from June to December and a dry season from January to May. It's important to prepare for hurricane season, which typically runs from June to November. Healthcare facilities in Grenada are adequate for routine medical problems, but serious conditions may require evacuation to a country with more advanced facilities. Expats should ensure they have comprehensive health insurance that covers medical evacuation. Grenada is generally safe, but expats should still take standard precautions to protect their personal safety and belongings. This includes avoiding isolated areas at night and not displaying signs of wealth. Expats should also be aware that Grenada has a conservative culture, particularly in rural areas. It's important to respect local customs and traditions. Driving is on the left-hand side of the road in Grenada, and the roads can be narrow and winding with steep drops. Expats planning to drive should familiarize themselves with local driving conditions and regulations. Finally, expats should be aware that while Grenada is a beautiful and welcoming country, it can take time to adjust to the slower pace of life and different way of doing things. Patience and a sense of humor can go a long way in making the transition easier," wrote a member in Mt. Moritz.
