Belize Retirement Areas
Belize is a lovely name for a lady. But recently, if you have been
watching television, the location of the reality series ‘Temptation
Island’ might have caught your eye. It was filmed on Belize’s
Ambergris Caye and true enough, it has tempted the wanderlust of
many viewers, so much so that there has been a surge for inquiries
regarding Belize retirement areas.
Belize is a part of Central America and prides itself as the only one
with English as its national language. It is sandwiched between
Guatemala (on the west and south) and Mexico (on the north). It does
not have any coastlines on the Pacific Ocean but it has the Caribbean
Sea on the east.
Before you call up your real estate agent to find many enticing Belize
retirement areas, you must first familiarize yourself with the
requirements on moving to Belize. First, a minimum stay of 1 year is
required in order for you to apply for ‘Permanent Residency’. Initially,
you will be paying USD 12.50 per month for six months, after your first
month of residence in the country. This for passport stamps that the
immigration officials will provide you.
If it seems trivial for you why there are many people looking for Belize
retirement areas, not only is it because of the attractive retirement
package that the country offers. It is also because of the booming real
estate industry of the country. Prime properties in Belize if a lot more
affordable compared to those in the United States, Europe or other
hyped Caribbean countries. Besides, the recorded economic growth
of Belize has been relatively promising and investing in an emerging
market such as theirs is getting more popular.
According to recent research and surveys the most popular Belize
retirement areas for many expatriates are Placencia, Ambergris Caye,
Caye/Coyo District, and Corozol.
Placencia is an elongated peninsula on the Caribbean side of Belize.
The most famous community in the area is the Village of Placencia
which is on the extreme southern tip of the island. The eastern side of
Placencia is delightfully bedecked by a long expanse of white sandy
beach. If the place looks and sounds familiar, that is because it was
the filming location for the season finale of the reality TV series called
‘Flavor of Love 2’.
The main attractions in Ambergis Caye (pronounced as 'am-BER-gris
key') are the Belize barrier reef which is the second largest next to the
Great Barrier Reef of Australia and their beaches are also stunning. In
Corozol District are the villages of Paraiso, Patchacan, Progresso,
Pueblo, Calcutta, Chan Chen, Chunox, Cocos, Consejo, Copper Bank,
Corozalito, San Joaquin, Sarteneja, Shipstern, Libertad, Little Belize,
Xaibe, Nuevo, Ranchito, and Louisville.
Caye or Coyo District, which is the largest district in Belize, houses
the capital city of Belmopan, the town of Benque Viejo del Carmen,
Armenia, San Jose Succotz, Ontario,Camalote, Los Tambos,Armenia,
More Tomorrow, the district capital of San Ignacio, Roaring Creek,
Arenal, Buena Vista, Calla Creek, Esperanza, Cristo Rey, the villages
of San Antonio Cayo, Valley of Peace, Unitedville, Blackman Eddy,
Spanish Lookout, and St. Margaret's, Georgeville.
