What do people like (and dislike) about Dominican Rep?
When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Dominican Rep, they replied...
"I retired and moved to the Dominican Republic 13 years ago. I began using pubic transport to explore this lovey island. I still use public transport as I didn't have the money to buy a car. I helped buy a two bedroom villa in a community of many Europeans, Canadians and Americans. Then 7 years later I started renting cheap apartments where i spend all my time writing books (Author Peter Brighton). There are many rental accommodations worth living in. All within walking distance of beaches and countryside, Plus, many restaurants and English speaking contacts. Have not returned to England for ten years," commented one expat who made the move to Dominican Rep.

"Expats and digital nomads living in the Dominican Republic often appreciate the country's warm climate, beautiful beaches, and vibrant culture. They also enjoy the low cost of living, which allows them to stretch their budget further. On the other hand, some expats and digital nomads may find the language barrier and lack of reliable public transportation to be challenging. Additionally, the country's infrastructure can be unreliable, making it difficult to access certain services," remarked another expat in Dominican Rep.
