What is a typical expat home or apartment like in San Jose?

We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in San Jose is like. They answered...

"Housing can be very cheap, especially if you rent out a room from a Costa Rican family. While the family's home (bathroom especially) may not be of the same type that a middle-class American is used to, it is the best way to get to know your new home country's people. If you want, you could even rent out a room at a backpackers' type of hotel or hostel for cheap rates, too. I've stayed in simple beach-front hotels for US $9 a night," remarked another expat who made the move to San Jose, Costa Rica.

"Expat homes and apartments in San Jose typically have modern and contemporary designs. Many apartments have balconies with beautiful views of the surrounding landscape that often include mountains and volcanos. Many expat homes and apartments in San Jose come with high-end stainless steel appliances and luxury furnishings. Commonly, the homes are equipped with state-of-the-art security systems to ensure the safety of their occupants. Expat homes and apartments often boast spacious rooms and large windows that let in plenty of natural light. Air conditioning, a laundry area and maid services are often standard in many expat homes and apartments," explained one expat living in San Jose, Costa Rica, Costa Rica.
