By Jane Goodwin | June 28, 2007
Why choose Panama as your retirement destination? There are so many good reasons; it would be impossible to list them all! Here are just a few, to begin with:
Almost everyone in Panama speaks English. English is Panama’s second language.
The official currency of Panama is the Balboa, but your American dollar is accepted anywhere in Panama.
Panama has excellent health care: there is a Johns Hopkins in Panama City, as well as other reputable clinics/hospitals, and all of them accept many USA insurance policies. People come to Panama from all over the world to partake of the healthcare services.
It’s easy to purchase property in Panama, and the fees are simple and reasonable, too. Don’t forget those property tax incentives.
The Panama Canal is due to be widened, which increases Panama’s potential for prosperity. This will also bring even more retirees to Panama, so your social circles will be large and your property prices will be low.
In Panama, there is always something wonderful to see. Panama has majestic and beautiful mountains only a short drive from its incomparable beaches.
Will you be bringing school-age children or grandchildren with you? Panama has good schools and private schools.
Panama is breathtakingly beautiful, wherever you look. If you are looking out the windows of your own home in Panama, it will seem even more beautiful.
