"One of the most challenging aspects of retiring in Hamilton is the high cost of living. The cost of housing, groceries, and other necessities is significantly higher than in many other parts of the world. Additionally, the island is relatively isolated, making it difficult to access medical care and other services. The climate can also be a challenge, as the island is prone to hurricanes and other extreme weather events. Finally, the island is small, so there are limited opportunities for entertainment and leisure activities," remarked another expat in Hamilton, Bermuda.
