Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Cotacachi accepting of differences?

When we asked people about diversity in Cotacachi and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...

"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," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Cotacachi, Ecuador.

"About 1/3 of the local residents are Indigenous, still wearing their traditional dress," commented one expat who made the move to Cotacachi, Ecuador.
