What do I need to know before retiring in Dominican Rep?

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

"I would tell them to first visit, meet people in the Chamber of Commerce to get better acquainted with where to live and how to move around in the city," remarked another expat in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Rep.

"It would depend on how old he is. If retired come, come, come if wanting work unless he has plenty capital to start a business, go somewhere else," said a member in Las Terrenas, Dominican Rep.
