"Expats in Negril often find the local culture to be quite different from what they are used to. The language barrier can be a challenge, as English is not widely spoken in the area. Additionally, the local customs and traditions can be difficult to understand and navigate. The climate can also be a challenge, as the area is very hot and humid for much of the year. Finally, the cost of living can be higher than what expats are used to, as prices for goods and services can be higher than in other parts of the world," said another expat in Negril, Jamaica.
