Belize vs USA - Cost of Living by MyBetterHalf
I've read articles stating the cost of living in Belize is essentially the same as living in the USA. For those who have taken the plunge and made the move, can you give the rest of us an idea of what it takes to live there. I'm not looking ...
Has anyone here considered reporting your local costs on Numbeo? Currently the only Belize locations on Numbeo are Ladyville and Belize City but there are plenty of other locations represented on this forum. It's easy to add info for locations ... Read More
Belize Independence Day
I just realized that I will be in Belize for Belize Independence Day! I was wondering how Belize celebrates this important day? Does it vary by region? Will businesses like shops and restaurants be closed on this day? Read More

Thanks for all the helpful comments. We're excited to get there and check things out! Can anyone recommend some reputable realtors/home owners we could meet when we're there? We're not looking to purchase - just to get an idea of what we can ... Read More

Also, how critical is it to have hotel reservations during the low season? We were thinking of leaving things flexible except maybe the first/last night. Bad idea? Read More

Thanks to both of you for the great suggestions! I do think we're going to focus on Hopkins since that was one place of interest. We'll see if we get anywhere else on this trip. About the rental vehicle, I was under the impression that a 4x4 ... Read More

Haha, yes, 6 days is definitely too short to get a lot done. But that's what we have right now so we're taking advantage of it (and one of the reasons we're asking the experts for suggestions on how to make this trip as useful as possible). Like ... Read More

We are still trying to narrow down where we want to explore. We were leaning toward the Cayo District but it really comes down to where we can eventually make a living. Our goal is not to make a fortune, just enough to live on and be able to stay ... Read More
