What do I need to know before retiring in Leon?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Leon, they said...
"Before retiring in Leon, it is important to know the cost of living as it is higher than the national average. You should also explore the different retirement options that are available and assess if they are a good fit for you. Additionally, research the health care options in the area to find providers that best suit your needs. The ability to connect with other retirees in the region is also important and Leon offers a variety of community activities, events and organizations to connect with others. Finally, Leon has a pleasant climate and is surrounded by natural attractions and beautiful beaches making it an ideal retirement destination," said another expat in Leon, Nicaragua.
"Thinking of moving to Leon ? Know it is a hot city (between 9h30 and 4h00 the sun is burnin ) so air-condition ed room is a must or take refuge in the shades of trees in parks. Small hotel rooms are cheap (8 to 15 dollars a day) but standard is very basic : no hot water, no bathroom tub, ceiling fan but no air conditioning. Service is slow and be prepared to be patient. English is rarely heard except from tourists and North American residents," wrote a member who made the move to Leon , Nicaragua.
