When we asked people why foreigners move to Bahamas, they responded...

"The Bahamas offers expats a chance to enjoy a sunny, tropical lifestyle with a vibrant social scene and stunning natural beauty. The cost of living is relatively low compared to other parts of the world, and there are no income or capital gains taxes. Expats living in the Bahamas will also find a safe and friendly environment with a stable and modern infrastructure and world-class medical care. The country also offers excellent education opportunities and an abundance of outdoor activities and attractions," remarked another expat in Bahamas.

"I believe the majority of foreigners are here for retirement and tax shelters. Many foreigners are here in the banking sector while others are here working in tourism," said a member in Paradise Island, Bahamas.
