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

"Predominantly non practicing Catholics, multi/mixed racial component, with distinctly cultural diversity, but easily assimilating into a common citizen," said another expat in Panama City, Panama.

"Besides the multicultural Panamanians there are people from all over the world here and seven different Indian tribes. For the most part everyone gets along great. There are occasional clashes in any community and this is a tight knit one where people help their neighbors. Panama welcomes people from many countries with great expat laws and easy residency," wrote a member who made the move to Bocas del Toro, Panama.
