We asked expats and digital nomads what they appreciate the most about the local culture in Panama. They wrote...

"Expatriates appreciate Panama's rich local culture, embracing diversity and inclusion. They also value the ease of doing business in the country, as well as the accessibility to settle and obtain citizenship. Availability of housing, proximity to Panama's paradisiacal islands, and access to the financial market are also highlighted by expatriates," wrote Moises Alvarado N. from Panama Legal Business (PANLEB).

"Expats appreciate the friendly and welcoming nature of the local people. They also enjoy the laid-back atmosphere and the slower pace of life. Pair that with the Pensionado program that offers residence and special benefits to pensioner expats from North America and beyond, and you have an ideal retirement destination," wrote Business Panama from Business Panama Group.
