Is the cost of living in Abaco Islands high?

We asked people how much they someone comfortably live on in Abaco Islands, they wrote:

"The cost of living in the Abaco Islands, is considered to be relatively high compared to many other locations. This is largely due to the fact that most goods need to be imported, which significantly increases their price. Housing can also be quite expensive, especially in desirable areas close to the beach. Utilities such as electricity and water are also higher than in many other places due to the remote location of the islands. Eating out and entertainment can also be quite costly. However, some costs, such as healthcare, are lower than in many other countries. Despite the high cost of living, many people find the beautiful surroundings and relaxed lifestyle to be worth the expense," explained one expat living in Abaco Islands.
