All those who want to think that Jamaica is not making proogress,better think again..From Negril Point to Morant Point,the number of houses that is going up is astonishing.
Yes🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Yeah the only reason why they're coming back is because it's unaffordable in the USA, Canada and UK.
Plus the country is developing so fast. We are about to get highways to every part of the country.
I am loving living here! Jamaica is BEAUTIFUL and AMAZING!
Negril is scheduled to get 4 highways and it will take about an hour and a half to drive from Kingston to Portland when the highway is completed from St. Thomas to Portland.
Plus the highway will be completed to Montego Bay from St Ann and also from Mandeville through St Elizabeth.
How many people can afford one of these houses???I can't 😭.not every body a forieng have it.we struggling here.we love to come home one day though. I love Jamaica I'm from the parish of St Ann Brown Town,ochi Rios those are my town. But forieng ruff and tuff right now it's even harder 🙏

Good that Jamaica is getting some love....
Surely it is! 🤩🌟
I was interviewed by her last Sunday- she is a gem. A great journalist.
@JamaicawithIrie is doing great at showcasing Jamaica in its beauty and her at length interviews are definitely great to watch. 💎🌟🎉
Jamaica,is,a,another
Garden,of,eden❤❤❤
It definitely has several exciting natural phenomenon to be enjoyed! 🎉🎶🌟
When i decided to return home 3 years ago, Jamaicans here in US keep saying, "yu nuh hear all a waah gwaan inna Jamaica?" And I said, I care zero, I am going to my yaad.
Work your plan of return @AnnaYAH5315! The vision is yours and the naysayers will always be there and they help to test how passionate your are about the vision you believe you have been called to carry out. 💯💎🎶
@@AnnaYAH5315 Preying eyes are a reality in Jamaica. They do exist there. Not everywhere. They target many returning residents many times.
I watched all of those people too.I came home last year summer with my girls as soon as my big daughter get off the place I could see the way she was looking around . One special I notice with her is when we were driving up to Manchester she was just looking at the houses. The vibes with my girls was so good. She is the one who cries to come back to live and attend school. She hate the cold so we are giving it to her.Did you get a student visa for your daughter or Jamaican passport?
That's a great reason for a move! For school, as the Jamaica parent, you are able to enroll your children in school on their passport (as ID). However, you'll need to get their immigration status right and provide the school the relevant paperwork. 💯🎉✨
@Life wid di jamfams
I love your content and I am so happy I found your channel!😊😆
Thanks you! 💎🎶🌟
@@LifewiddiJamFams Me too. Thanks for showing the beautiful and positive sides of Jamaica. I'm organizing to come home and I can't wait to be there.
@AnnaYAH5315 hurry up and com missis! 🤩💯
INTELLIGENT WOMAN
Thanks! 💯🎶💎
Thanks for showing us these people, I hadn't seen some of these channels
You are welcome! 💯😎
People the keys for living in Jamaica is to have an established source of survival what does all these people have in common they have a TH-cam channel.this is an income by itself.its take hard work and band your belly if you choose to go back home because realistically you can go home with the little you save but winded up broke.so you have to have an income of survival.
Where about are you watching from?
@@LifewiddiJamFams USA
YES PEOPLE ARE CHOOSING JAMAICA, BUT AS JAMAICAN WE GOT TO BE HONEST ABOUT JAMAICA. JAMAICA NEED SO MUCH IMPROVEMENT IN OUR HOSPITALS. OUR MARKET PLACES, WE NEED ROADS TO BE FIXED, WE NEED SIDEWALKS , 70 PERCENT OF OUR STUDENT ARE FAILING, THE CONSENT AGE NEED TO BE 18 NOT 16 YEARS OLD, WE NEED ACCESS TO ALL OUR BEACHES TO BE IN LAW, THE POLITICIANS NEED TO WORK THAT REFLECTS THE MILLIONS THEY ARE TAKING FROM TAX PAYERS , THE MEDIA NEED TO START SPEAKING HONESTLY ABOUT WHAT IS TAKING PLACE IN THE SOCIETY ESPECIALLY ABOUT GOVERNMENT.
@august906
My husband and I have had a great experience with the Jamaican hospital and the doctors and I love the low cost of healthcare! The roads need fixing and the government has a 40 billion dollar budget to fix the roads. Some areas have better roads than others. Plus we are getting highways to all sides of the country. For example, Negril is scheduled to get 4 highways in the next few years.
I moved to the countryside and I am getting used to the bumpy roads. I love the beauty and the friendliness of the country people.
Today a neighbor who is a farmer gave us a watermelon. Last week a taxi driver I met recently gave me a bag full of mangoes and 2 watermelons. I am really enjoying life here.
Most Jamaicans who are moving back are moving from the UK.
You sound like a political campaign. I know it's election season, but my goodness! Keep it down. Sorry Jamaica has not yet reached developed country status, however some developed countries are complaining about these very things. Hopefully you are doing something to contribute to Jamaica's growth.
Who you no a Jamaican 🇯🇲 you sound like a palition a p.n.p no one can't stop Jamaica 🇯🇲 God bless
Crime all over the world 🌎 question you ever travel not even in your own island please 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
do your research before taking your comment to social media.. the government is currently building 4 massive hospitals 2 in Kingston 1 in Spanish town and one in montego Bay.. 3 major highways are currently under construction, and the government just recently announced the spark program that'll build and fix 2000 roads across the country and about the beaches less than 10% of Jamaica's beaches are privatized a lot of jamaicans falsely complained about don't having any access to the beaches again that's false!!! a lot of these people can't even swim 😂 I'm of no political party, but I must say all my life I have never seen the level of developments that's taking place here in jamaica I was in Portmore the other day and I counted 6 massive gated communities under construction and that's just in portmore alone all across jamaica thousands and thousands of homes are being built 5 new police stations are under construction 8 fire stations are under construction the massive urban center in morant bay is under construction 3 massive resort will open in jamaica this year the princess resort and casino will open its doors in June..RIU just open another reason in trelawney and UNICO will open later this year..the German drydock ship repair recently completed its second ship repair in Kingston harbor..the BPO sector is spreading like wildfire in jamaica..the Debt to GDP was at 144% today it's at 72%..the unemployment rate was at 13 % today it's at 4.2% the national reserve was under US 1billon today it's US5billon jamaica recently received the best credit rating in its history BB _ jamaica recently won the number one global leading destination and you people are still complaining?? GIVE ME A F-ING BREAK!!!!
Great interview. This is true talk.
Thank you! 💯🌟
New sub. Looking forward to more content.
Welcome to the Tribe! 💎💯🎶
Bless up you self 🙌🏿🙏🏿 mom some of dem bad not even dem own island never travel, have a great day 👍🏿💯
Thanks! 💯😂🤣
You have not shown one original Jamaica
As the title said, these are expats, foreigners moving to Jamaica. th-cam.com/video/x_H7L0pLGmI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XrsZIlNB0TzDmZHc shows some Jamaicans who are returning.The comments sections have several of them giving their Jamaican experience 🎶💯🌟
Yes I have been doing my research on Jamaica and I love the place and I too am contemplating moving there Jamaica just has everything and that's what I love and don't even talk about the continued development so I will be there
Thank you for sharing it is very encouraging
It's great to hear that it has been encouraging. You are definitely welcome to Jamaica!
Swaggy married a Jamaican that's not the same thing. Her husband had to return to Jamaica. An expat is someone who choose Jamaica without any ties there.
An expatriate is anyone who lives outside of their native country; therefore, she is an expat. They lived elsewhere and chose to return to Jamaica. Thanks for joining in the conversation. 💯💎
@@LifewiddiJamFamsHer husband is the reason she's there. She didn't decide as a 20 year old to relocate there. She relocated because of her husband. Irina chose Jamaica.
Your point is understood... Her reason for moving to Jamaica was mentioned in the video. However, there were other countries they could have chosen. She must have had some say in the decision. She is embracing and promoting the Jamaican culture and is happy to be living in Jamaica!
Soon come!
@@RichardChong-v4kmi tu😆
enjoy our beautiful island
It's definitely a place to be enjoyed! 🌟💯💎
I have been to Antwerp- the diamond museum is there.
How befitting; Jamaica is a diamond in itself as well! 💎🤩😎
Jamaica is a lovely place to live
Most certainly! 😎🎉🌟
@@LifewiddiJamFams I cannot wait to return
Hurry up and come! 😊🌟😎
@LifewiddiJamFams bless
If only I could, just do that
I'm praying it will be sooner rather than later
🙏🏾🙏🏾🌟
Forty four not fody four, that is not a Jamaican or a British dialect it's an American one. It's good to keep your culture it's a nice rich culture.
@islandview4385 that's how the content creator speaks and it's clear you understood what they were saying...
😆😆😆🤣🤣 that sound of d for t kills me everytime 🤣🤣🤣...smh
Swaggy? swaggy can't even open a tin of corned beef with the key. Lol
@swaggypondiisland has embraced the Jamaican culture and is doing very well from the dance, to the foods she cooks. We shared a shorts to show her how to open the corned beef because Jamaicans find it hard to open it as well and we know how to do things by learning. 🤔
Jamaicans also have a sense of humour and know how fi run joke 😋
Love and blessings for the stories
You are welcome! 💯🎆
❤❤❤beautiful
Thanks! 💯🤩😎
Why is it , it's mainly w...e you are showing thats coming to live in jamaica.they are not returnies
Expats are people who live in another country from their home country. th-cam.com/video/x_H7L0pLGmI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XrsZIlNB0TzDmZHc you can see Jamaicans who have returned. There are also several of them in the comments section. 🎶💯🌟
My sister Jamaica 🇯🇲 is a small island .I know that we love to welcome foreigners but we have to understand that we could sell out ourselves out of the island. Let's not be foolish in our approach to welcoming everyone.
In the mean time how many countries have welcomed Jamaicans in their own country? If they were to say the same thing then they should'nt allow Jamaican in their country either.
@@eileenwatt8283 I don't have any problem with our brothers and sisters from America and the Caribbean but when we welcome others to buy land and properties can you go to Europe Russia Ukrainian and buy land in fact most of these countries makes you feel so unwelcome. Have you traveled across many other countries outside of the Caribbean. I have can you buy land in Canada as a Jamaican can you buy land in the USA. in fact how many Jamaicans can buy land 🤔 in Jamaica.it's a small island.our Jamaican population in Jamaica should be able to afford an buy land before any other nationals, some of whom have plenty cash to do so.
@@eileenwatt8283 I'm not against people visiting living but buying of land is our Jamaican birth right as Jamaican not foreigners.
If Jamaica were waiting, on Jamaica abroad, to build Jamaica , Jamaica would still be like the 70s. All they do is sit and criticize. They liked it when they used to go to Jamaica and everyone was poor and looked up to them..
Jamaican has grown past most all of you. Jamaican foreigners are stuck in the Jamaica they left. Jamaica has moved on and evolved
😂😂🤣
@msjamaicanliberianbuity9081 Jamaica has much room when compared to other countries it's size. It will work it's self out. Where about are you watching from.
Long time.
And they are loving Jamaica!
Where can they get that information???
If you are referring to the immigration information it's available on WWW.PICA.GOV.JM
Of late, to see Jamaica's cost of living as an advantage, one has to be in an income bracket exceeding that of US $500,000- US $1,000,000.
The average Jamaican *cannot* afford the cost of housing in Jamaica 🇯🇲, if they even qualify for a mortgage, they will spend most of their lives paying off mortgage, and will struggle to afford other costs.
Your point is noted and appreciated! There is also the concept that it is purely down to financial management and lifestyle people want to curate. Cost of living is drastically increasing all over the world.
There are many Jamaican's who buy and build, or buy in developments where they can further develop. We have done some videos about cost of living that you could have a look at if you so desire. 💯🎶🎉
@LifewiddiJamFams
Fortunately, I am not urgently needing residence in Jamaica.
However, from a construction rate recently obtained, the cost of building a certain square footage house is far cheaper than those advertised.
I think the cost advantage Jamaica may enjoy is in the maintenance cost for what is considered a luxury community. In the U.S., such monthly fees can be the same as the monthly mortgage, making the cost of a home in those communities twice as much. It won't be long before Jamaicans find that out, and upwardly adjust their maintenance fee.
I feel sorry for anyone who doesn't know a good, honest contractor to 'build on own land' for them.
@Rockjamify As long as it is a reputable builder then all should be well. Many Jamaicans, in the locality and Repats, do not live in gated communities. They live in housing estates, suburbs etc. There really isn't that many gated communities across the length and breath of Jamaica. It means that people coming back don't need to consider additional cost outside of land tax and there own property maintenance. 👍🏾💯💎

Thxs 4 the info.
People the keys for living in Jamaica is to have an established source of survival what does all these people have in common they have a TH-cam channel.this is an income by itself.its take hard work and band your belly if you choose to go back home because realistically you can go home with the little you save but winded up broke.so you have to have an income of survival.
People who are moving back home are definitely making a considerable amount of sacrifice to realise their ambition. Wherever we are living we need an income stream to afford the living costs and it is absolutely worth exploring what that will be when deciding to move to Jamaica.
@@LifewiddiJamFams that what I'm saying.its not just move back home and don't have something to live off.jamacia will always be home for me but it takes sacrifices and a mindset to know of way to survive while living there.dont get me wrong I would love to come home but me no have nothing here or down there . paycheck to paycheck you pay more Bills than what you make in america.so what I'm saying people have to understand that coming back home you have to establish your self.before that big move.
@msgrace5176 It seems we are in agreement. People moving back need to give though to the process and figure out what they'll be doing because the cost to do so is great. They need to plan it and work the plan. All the best with your move back plan... 🙏🏾
The move back plan not easy but I'm hanging on more than sloopy because I'm tired in this place!
Jamaica stop the crime now
There is so much going on for Jamaica; don't be blind sided by the propaganda!
Are you saying that where you are crime is nonexistent? I think what you mean is to get serious crime more under control. Crime is everywhere, and it can be reduced, but will never be totally eradicated. But as @LifewiddiJamFams says, don't be blindsided by the propaganda. Put some perspective on your thought processes, instead of parroting and regurgitating soundbites.
When people talk about crime and me going back home, I tell dem, "mi an all a di gun bwoi dem aguh run roun dun deh." I refuse to pay attention to that line of argument. In the US, sporadic shooting incidents are a thing... not in Jamaica. There are other things such as racism and discrimination, which for me is so difficult because I came to US at my big age and was not accustomed to those issues.
They taking over our little island that why we can't afford to buy a piece of land there or a house.its take working 3 jobs or winning the lottery to move back to Jamaica and to survive 😢😢😢
In that sense, does Jamaican migrating to other countries affect the affordability for their citizen? 🤔🧐
No, it's better you say it will take YOU 3 jobs or winning the lottery to move back to Jamaica, because not everyone is in your situation, you can't speak for everyone. Also, don't you think that when Jamaicans (or anyone else for that matter), move abroad it doesn't affect the people in the countries they move to? I'm sure if you talk to people you'll see that it does.
Are you not in another man country? Are you taking over?
Why unuh love to to other people country and like non in yours. Anuh suh it go.
We need more Africans from the continent to live in Jamaica 🇯🇲 also.
True, but a lot of Africans are learning skills in foreign going to Africa and building it.
Why?.. When they are telling us Jamaicans to move back to Africa? We like diversity.and that's why Jamaica has developed and advanced so well. Majority of Jamaicans is black anyway.
Yes, Jamaica is a state of Africa. We just love to see our African brothers and sisters just come and mindller with us.i feel more stronger, one love to our African family.
@Goodtogo-jj4sk There is already a large number of Africans and Caricom individuals living in Jamaica. Many people are flocking to the shores of Jamaica because they see the potentials and the quality it offers. 🤔🧐💯
@@audreywright7788 Jamaican abroad needs to go back to Jamcian with thier skills and money. I'll be one of them and 2 of the younger generations are coming too. They have appiled for citizenship through parentage.
Just say black American
African Americans is a term that can be used.
@@kaydenpat They don't like that term it's offensive to them. And they don't use that term anymore. So why csnt you just accept it
@@giniolamysome don’t like it and some do so you can’t say they don’t like to be called this or that.
@giniolamy Thanks for the suggestion of a different way to represent the ethnic group other than the commonly used phrase used in the video. Apparently Afro-American is also another term that could be used. 🤔🧐
SO WHY ARE AFRICAN TH-camRS SAYING JAMAICA IS CRISIS?
Good question! Which ones are saying that?
@@LifewiddiJamFams Tne Kenyans especially one called 'Elly from africa
Examine that channel a but closer...
All these people can enjoy Jamaica 🇯🇲 If they didn't have USD or EUROS CAD they wouldn't enjoy it they wouldn't say Jamaica is nice because they have 💰 money
I don’t get your point. I have family who live in Jamaica and have never left and are enjoying themselves. All Jamaicans aren’t struggling.
@@kaydenpatReal talk
ALL Jamaicans are not poor. ALL AMERICANS and CANADIANS are not rich.
There are a lot of people who are so poor in the foreign you would be surprised! Many are homeless. The cost of living is through the roof! As soon as you make money it is swallowed up by bills, bills and more bills! Look up the poorest areas in UK and USA. It is a real eye opener. Why do you think so many want to go back to Africa to build it who have skills!
It's America ruff everything expensive Jamaican don't know what they have
And you soon have no land. We Grenadians would like less of them for sure. This is our land and we want to keep it this way
If Jamaicans don't sell their lands, people cannot buy them. Equally there are places like Ghana that only lease to non-citizens and those lease duration vary. Maybe that's something worth lobbying for in your country...
@@LifewiddiJamFams I thought we were addressing Jamaicans problems? In my country we used to lease land and land could not be sold to foreigners. But since the CBI took effect under Keith Mitchell watch he started selling what he could not find. We vote him out on our knees no matter how many Haitians he brought in to work witchcraft to stay and die in office we got rid of him. Witchcraft does not work for Grenadians we have a God.
😂🤣😎
So because she's not from Jamaica she got to renew her paper every 3 smh I hate the politics here
Every country has their immigration rules and that's Jamaica's on the basis of her immigration status. Therefore, she has gone about applying and ensuring she is complying with the rules. What are the rules where you life, if outside Jamaica?
You heard what you wanted to hear for whatever reason. But she didn't say 3 months, she said she has to renew her permit every 3 years. She has to do that until she reach the qualifying years for her to receive her permanent or citizenship status. Every country has their immigration rules, so this isn't something hard to understand. You think Jamaicans (or anyone else for that matter), doesn't go through the same thing in other countries?
We Needs Jews, Arabs, Russians, Turkish, Spanish, Eastern Europeans, moroccans and latinos to move to Jamaica in HUGE numbers
No way no more Jews, Europeans, Chinese, Middle Eastern, we only want black people to move to Jamaica
Why? You want to breed out the Black's
We don’t need those problems here
@@bangarang7445 what problems? Jamaica needs to be drastically change. mass migration is coming. hundreds and thousands are coming!
@Nazarene_Judaism The problems with which Jamaica is faced can be solved by Jamaicans. It requires so collaboration, collective responsibility, group economics and working for the greater good of the nation and future generation. There isn't a single problem in Jamaica that Jamaicans in Jamaica and the diaspora cannot solve. 🤔🧐
