"Expats considering retirement in Christ Church should be aware of several key factors. Firstly, the cost of living in Barbados is relatively high compared to other Caribbean islands, with imported goods and groceries being particularly expensive. However, local produce and seafood are more affordable. Healthcare in Barbados is of a high standard, with both public and private facilities available. Expats should ensure they have comprehensive health insurance, as medical costs can be high. The official language is English, making it easy for English-speaking expats to communicate and integrate. The local Bajan dialect can be difficult to understand at first, but most locals also speak standard English. The climate in Barbados is tropical, with warm temperatures year-round. However, the island is susceptible to hurricanes between June and November. Barbados has a relatively low crime rate compared to other Caribbean countries, but petty crime does occur, and expats should take standard precautions to protect their property. The island has a well-developed infrastructure, with reliable utilities and internet service. Public transportation is readily available, but many expats choose to buy or rent a car for convenience. Barbados has a range of housing options, from luxury villas to more modest apartments. Property prices can be high, especially in popular areas, and expats should be prepared for this. Finally, Barbados has a vibrant culture and friendly locals. Expats should take the time to learn about local customs and traditions, and to participate in community events and festivals. This will help them to integrate and make the most of their retirement in this beautiful island nation," remarked another expat who made the move to Christ Church, Barbados.
