Why do people move to Ecuador?
When we asked people why foreigners move to Ecuador, they responded...
"Ecuador's diverse natural beauty, welcoming culture, and relatively low cost of living are all attractive factors for expats looking to move to the country. Thanks to its stable government, strong foreign investment, and positive economic outlook, expats can be confident in making a move to Ecuador. Furthermore, Ecuador's location in the South American continent means that expats can take advantage of easy travel around the region as well as access to a variety of other South American countries. All in all, Ecuador is a great option for expats looking for a diverse culture, a relatively low cost of living, and an affordable and accessible place to explore South America," remarked another expat in Ecuador.
"We love it here....just outside like suburbs of Sangolqui which has population of about 75,000. Sangolqui has a very indigenous but Ecuadorian yuppie vibe. We have everything close-by, shopping mall, local market fruits and vegetables, Megamaxi (like Target), nice medical clinics and hospital, lots of outdoor activities AND breakfast view of snow covered Cotopaxi....," said a member in Valle de Los Chillos , Ecuador.
