What do people like (and dislike) about Belmopan?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Belmopan, they replied...

"Expats and digital nomads appreciate Belmopan for its relaxed lifestyle and friendly, welcoming locals. They enjoy the city's natural beauty, including its lush greenery, wildlife, and proximity to stunning beaches and Mayan ruins. The cost of living is relatively low, making it an affordable place to live. The city's small size also means less traffic and congestion, which many find appealing. English is the official language, making it easier for expats to communicate and integrate into the local community. However, Belmopan also has its drawbacks. Some expats and digital nomads find the city's infrastructure lacking, with frequent power outages and unreliable internet service, which can be a significant issue for those who rely on the internet for work. The healthcare facilities are also limited and not up to the standards that some expats may be accustomed to. The city's small size also means fewer entertainment options and amenities compared to larger cities. The crime rate, while lower than in some other parts of Belize, is also a concern for some. Lastly, the hot and humid climate can be uncomfortable for those not used to tropical weather," remarked another expat in Belmopan, Belize.
