    How would people handle ongoing medications they have in Canada and the US? Meghan sort of answered this question. She intimated that Belize doesn't have the medical infrastructure for older folks, who are not likely to be able to live like a local in Belize!

    If there is so much talk about Placencia or Spanish Lookout, why do we hear so much online about Mahogany and Secret Bay?

    She's great. She's also young. What about people in Belize who are expats who are in the older demographic and living in Belize or interested in living in Belize?

      I do see Belize is a great option for retirees. Close to the US, affordable when it comes to US and Canada standards, and english speaking. It's a warm friendly culture and you can fish and scuba dive daily:).

      @@dovygoodguy1296 Belize has home health services for adults that need care, you could get medical care fromnBelize City, San Pedro Island, Mexico etc, Ambergis Caye has an assisted living facility, Liberty home is located in Belize City, if you have the money you can receive excellent services, if you don't have the money just like in the U.S or Canada you have limited options.
      The Embassy suggests that you get traveler's insurance because social security, medicare, medicaid, and the VA benefits are not accepted there.

    For one year no bank accounts so repeat tourists have to live in ATMs at the price of $1200 per person for one year?

      Or you can pursue the retirement visa option where you have to show a 2000 income per month.

      @Nunya37 This is what my belize realtor told us. Dont live in belize city, its basically Detroit. If you move to the island with the expats and tourists' hot spots, its expensive. If you move inland, like the cayo district, its cheap. Common logic. Of course, you're not going to get a house that not "Americanized" and thats fine by me. Their houses are stunning and affordable.

    I Love & adore her personality..but only the "Rich" 100k+ a year can afford to live in Belize 🇧🇿..out of all your interviews over the years. Belize is 1 of the most expensive countries to live. Especially in Central & South America. Wish her all the best regardless..I'm sure she has investments in USA 🇺🇸.

      @jayboogeyman 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Maybe on the tourist island part, but on the main land, it's actually cheap. My friend lives off of 15k USD which is 30K and is just fine. We're looking at the cayo district, theres 6 houese we want to look at when we're there. One of the properties for sale has 2 houses, 30+ acres for only $450k usd. Our house here in the states is on 5 acres, 1 house at 500k. Cost of food there on the mainland is a lot more doable than here in the states.
