Where should I setup a bank account in Bridgetown?

Answer this Question

We asked expats in Bridgetown what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...

"Expats considering retirement in Bridgetown should be aware of several key factors. Firstly, the cost of living can be high, particularly for imported goods, due to import duties. Healthcare in Barbados is of a high standard, with both public and private options available, but it is advisable to have comprehensive health insurance. The official language is English, making it easier for English-speaking expats to communicate and integrate. The climate is tropical with a wet season from June to November, which can include hurricanes. Barbados has a relatively low crime rate compared to other Caribbean countries, but petty crime does exist, so it's important to take standard precautions. The island's culture is a blend of West African and British influences, which is reflected in its cuisine, music, and festivals. Barbados has a range of housing options, from luxury villas to more modest homes, but property prices can be high. The immigration process can be complex and time-consuming, so it's advisable to seek legal advice. Finally, Barbados is known for its slow pace of life, which can be a significant change for those used to a fast-paced lifestyle," said a member in Bridgetown, Barbados.
