Thinking about moving to DR. I'm coming down over the X-Mas holidays for 12 days to visit and assess the situation. This is what I've read so far:
- one (actually two) can survive on about $2000 USD per month provided they've paid cash for their home.
- the crime rate in some areas are pretty high (eg, Cabaret)...but is it mostly robbery and home invasion or are their also rapes and murders?
- gyms seem to be in the area, finding a spin room doesn't seem to be an issue, cost is about $22 USD per month for membership.
- I don't want to work (kind of defeats the purpose of moving to a retirement location), so do I still need to become a resident?
Just a little concerned...
