What is it like to retire in San Jose?

"Due to its excellent infrastructure, well-established expat community, and great climate, San Jose is a popular destination for retirees. Expats often join local clubs or organizations, such as the American-Costa Rican Association or the Costa Rican-North American Cultural Center, both of which provide a great opportunity to make friends and stay connected with the local culture. The city features a variety of entertainment, recreation, and cultural attractions, such as wildlife spotting, horseback riding, and thermal spas. There are also a range of restaurants and bars, providing plenty of options for social gatherings and nightlife. San Jose also serves as a great starting point for further exploration of Costa Rica, with its many conservation areas, national parks, and stunning beaches only a short drive away," commented one expat who made the move to San Jose, Costa Rica, Costa Rica.

"For me there is not enough cultural activity in San Jose and you really, morally have to pay attention or you'll miss an event, show, performance. Things are poorly promoted here. I don't go in for nightlife but in general Costa Ricans are not late night partyers like other Latins. I do not mingle with expats, but I know there are a LOT of them. My routine is walking all over the city, taking pictures, soaking up the atmosphere," remarked another expat in San Jose, Costa Rica.
