Why do people move to Ecuador?

"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," explained one expat living in Ecuador.

"At the risk of offending someone, I am not in Cuenca because of the cost of living. That is a bonus of course, but not key for us. We did a lot of searching of the globe (40+ years) to find a place that had the elements we needed to be happy at this stage of life.. We have had second homes in many places. After all, one gives up the proximity of family and old friends when one expats. There has to be some potent compensation! Cuenca requires the least compromises. Gobs of culture from free opera to free rock concerts. Two stadiums. UNENDING boutique shopping. A quickly recovering restaurant and club scene. 4 rivers running through it. Inca ruins. 16 century architecture! Cobble stone streets. A modern side. Views everywhere. 4 universities, colleges, music conservatoires, great inexpensive health care on anything within 10 minutes 24/7. A college town fill of beautiful young people. Many international fairs. Incredible fruits and seafood. (Everything costs a dollar..the only thing that varies is how much you get for it! :D) Today it is 6 mangoes for a buck unless you want to pick them for yourself. The best of all is the airport. It is too small for most international flights and that keeps expats and tourists away. Merely 15,000 (about 45% American and the rest from everywhere) in a greater area containing 700,000+ souls. If one yearns for beach, it is 3 hours away and the weather is hot all year long. However, the water is its warmest from December through Mayish (80F) Coldest in August (71F)," said another in Cuenca, Ecuador.
