9 Things to Consider when Choosing an Area in Costa Rica

[@Charles-qt4hq]

We were fortunate to find your KZbin channel back in 2021 when planning our move, then hired you for the move and transition. Now over two years in the Central Valley, we can say things have gone very well for us listening to you and your advice! You recommended our lawyer, car importing company, and insurance resources. And, you invited us into your client Central Valley WhatsApp group with even more additional and helpful info! All is good. Thank you for everything. We are very happy here!

REALLY GREAT VIDEO with GREAT INFO!!

I moved here recently with my daughter and we are currently renting in Santa Ana near San Jose. However, my mom will be retiring here soon and we will need to find the perfect area that will suit 3 generations (65, 44 and 22) with different needs and wants into one home. That is the ultimate challenge!

❤ that you are talking about medical emergencies! I moved there two years ago and got dengue and had to leave due to hard to access medical services. Still coming back though 😂

[@ParisianThinker]

I am so sorry to learn that. Why was it difficult to access care? How often do people contract dengue fever?

[@justyrenson]

Moving soon - hoping for May!

Hi Sarah, we are looking to move to Costa Rica from Europe, how can I please get your PDF on the cost of living. Great video😊. Thank you

What area would you recommend for a public school for a 7-year old? Looking for a family friendly area.

[@SarahElenaDesignsLife]

There are public schools everywhere but if your child doesn’t speak Spanish that will be a really hard adjustment. Also like any country the quality of public schools can vary depending on the area. I would consider a private school if possible.

[@mondodrum1]

Moving soon

Thinking about moving to Potrero as a family with a 5yrs old

[@janicesaulmarshall5126]

[@MsSharkit]

How do you reconcile with the fact that you are essentially colonizing yet another country? I've been thinking about moving to CR or somewhere else in Central America but I do not want to contribute to any kind of gentrification or end up living on stolen native land.

[@CoolHandLou1]

Please don't move to my country. We have too many foreigners driving up congestion, real estate prices, and the cost of everyday things. Pick any other country but mine.

[@ByHookOrByCrook13]

Do you know anything about nurses moving to CR, or direct on where to look. Are there private hospitals with English speaking nurses?

[@markgyman6934]

Heard you say a place on the southern pacific side what is the name of it

[@ebwork3729]

Moved to poas with my fiance in the cooler mountain climate to have our baby on a beautiful farm, but definitely going to heading to the beach in September!
