If you are thinking about moving to Trinidad & Tobago, cost of living in probably a key consideration. Expats commented about the cost of housing...

"The cost of housing in Trinidad & Tobago varies depending on the location and type of property. Generally, the average cost of a house in Trinidad & Tobago is quite high, with prices ranging from mid-range to luxury. Renting is also an option, with prices ranging from moderate to expensive," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Trinidad & Tobago.

"Lower. If you want the false security of where expats live (and thus to me, a target for when SHTF) you are going to pay crazy high prices because Trinis rent these houses to corporations and get big money from them. If you live in a nice community without expats in Trinidad, it is much more reasonable. My house is $2,800US with 5 bedroom, 5 bath, all stainless kitchen, pool, jacuzzi, view and I'm right by Chaguaramus, beaches, and town. The one road in and out sucks but nothing is perfect. PS - my electric bill per month is the equivalent of $150US - I paid $350 a month in the summer to cool my ranch house in the US!!," commented one expat who made the move to Carenage, Trinidad & Tobago.
