Is the cost of living in English Harbour high?

Answer this Question

We asked people how much they someone comfortably live on in English Harbour, they wrote...

"The cost of living in English Harbour, Antigua and Barbuda, is considered relatively high compared to other Caribbean islands. This is largely due to the fact that it is a popular tourist destination and a renowned yachting hub. Housing and rental prices can be quite steep, especially in areas close to the harbor or with sea views. However, there are more affordable options available further inland. Groceries and other basic necessities tend to be more expensive than in many other countries, as most goods are imported. Dining out, especially in high-end restaurants, can also be costly. Transportation costs can vary. While owning a car can be expensive due to high import taxes, public transportation and taxis are relatively affordable. Healthcare is of a good standard but can be expensive, particularly for specialized treatment or in private facilities. It is recommended to have comprehensive health insurance. Despite the high cost of living, many people find the lifestyle, climate, and natural beauty of English Harbour to be worth the expense," said another expat in English Harbour, Antigua & Barbuda.
