What do I need to know before moving to Panama City?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Panama City, they said...

"Before moving to Panama City, expats should research the cost of living and the availability of housing. It is also important to familiarize oneself with the local culture and customs, as well as the language. Additionally, expats should research the job market and the availability of healthcare services. It is also important to obtain the necessary visas and permits before moving to Panama City. Finally, expats should consider the safety of the city and the availability of transportation," said another expat in Panama City, Panama.

"Travel as light as you can. Open yourself to the experience of daily life where you land. Don't choose a permanent base-of-operations until you have considered EVERYTHING that is important to you, and that you've been to other areas of Panama. It's a small country with amazing diversity. Give yourself the opportunity to experience the banquet!!!," wrote a member who made the move to Panama City, Panama.
