The town is small and relatively undeveloped, providing a laid-back, slow-paced lifestyle that many retirees find appealing. The area is known for its beautiful beaches, which offer opportunities for swimming, surfing, and sunbathing. There is a small but growing expat community in El Transito, with retirees from various countries choosing to settle here. The locals are friendly and welcoming, making it easy for newcomers to integrate into the community. Cultural attractions in and around El Transito include local markets, where you can buy fresh produce and handmade crafts, and the nearby city of Leon, which is known for its colonial architecture and historic sites.
