"Cotacachi is a diverse place, home to a mix of indigenous Kichwa people, mestizos, Afro-Ecuadorians, and a growing community of expatriates from North America and Europe. This blend of cultures contributes to a rich tapestry of traditions, languages, and customs. The local population is generally accepting of differences, with a strong emphasis on community and mutual respect. However, like any place, individual experiences may vary. The town is known for its efforts in promoting intercultural dialogue and harmony, and it was even recognized as a UNESCO City of Peace and Reconciliation in 2000," explained one expat living in Cotacachi, Ecuador.
