The total one time cost for temporary residency for moving to Mexico is between $30 to $40 once you get your temporary residence at the Mexican consulate. When you get here you have to have 3,365 pesos (US $184) for a year plus the $30 that will be the immigration fee. And then if you want a person like me to hire to do this when the person arrives to Mexico, it’s between 1,000 to 1,500 pesos (US$ 55 to $82) on top of the immigration fee.

In San Juan Del Sur, everybody who has a car is a taxi automatically. So generally, taxis are free. You just jump in the back of a car because cars stop everywhere you go and that is how the Nicas get around. They just stick their thumbs out and if you have a pick-up truck, which most people do have, you are always filled with Nicaraguans who are transporting around.

In the US, the options to be able to stretch your dollars are somewhat more limited than when you go abroad. One of the best reasons to move abroad is that you can live for a fraction of the price it costs to live in the US.

Yes, there are "American trained" doctors in Belize, but as stated, many are trained in other CARICOM or Central American countries, or say, Colombia. They re generally VERY good, and I've been quite pleased with the care, cost, etc. If the basic question is "How good is the heath care in Belize?", I'd answer from my own prospective, pretty good. Basic care here is affordable, quick, and inexpensive by US standards.

For the daring, go to the jungles of Darien, but take a guide. Also remember the Smithsonian annual seminars at the National Headquarters in Ancon on Tuesdays at 4 pm. The seminars include interesting presentations on floral and fauna of the Panamá by scientists for the STRI or education institutions from around the world who come as guest speakers. A social hour follows the seminar where you can meet speakers, STRI scientists, students and local people in Panamá. .jpg)
A bridge. Some hills. A river. Interesting? Taken individually, maybe not so much. But wait! If you can find all three together, then you almost have a match made in heaven. I say almost. Now if you throw in a town, then – and only then – you have attained nirvana! 
I grew up in the United States, most recently from Northern California, but now in my 70’s I live in a village in Guatemala, five miles away from Antigua, a popular tourist destination and NOT typical of Guatemalan life. One of the things I believe has dramatically changed quality of life for this very poor country is plastic. Another, similar, is disposable diapers. And thirdly, cell phones. Here is why:
