Why do people move to Nicaragua?
When we asked people why foreigners move to Nicaragua, they responded...
"Nicaragua is a relatively inexpensive country to live in and the lifestyle is relaxed, providing expats with the opportunity to enjoy a great quality of life. The generous Nicaraguan people are known for their hospitality, and the cultural attractions, natural beauty, and wonderful climate are sure to please. With its location between two coasts, Nicaragua offers expats plenty of outdoor activities, from surfing and swimming to jungle trekking and mountain biking. Health care services, while limited, are adequate, and the local cuisine is renowned for its deliciousness, making Nicaragua an attractive destination for expats looking for an adventure," remarked another expat who made the move to Nicaragua.
"Many foreigners either visit or move to Granada, Nicaragua because of the year-round warm climate, low cost of living and the novelty of a distinctive foreign country that is accepting of travelers and easily within reach of the US and Canada," explained one expat living in Granada, Nicaragua.
