What do I need to know before retiring in Bermuda?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Bermuda, they said...
"Before retiring in Bermuda, expats should be aware of the cost of living, which is higher than in many other countries. They should also research the local housing market and the availability of rental properties. Additionally, expats should familiarize themselves with the local laws and regulations, as well as the tax system. It is also important to consider the climate and the island's hurricane season. Finally, expats should research the local healthcare system and the availability of medical services," remarked another expat who made the move to Bermuda.
"Do not come. On paper the salary looks good but a loaf of bread is US $3 and a half decent place to live is US$ 3000 a month. You have to be on a good package of 100K or more plus apartment thrown in to be OP here," explained one expat living in Hamilton, Bermuda.
