Expat Life in The Dominican Republic

Are you wondering what life is really like for expats in the Dominican Republic and whether it’s the right place for you? Expats choose to move to the island country for lots of reasons, and the DR has a lot to offer them. It could be the perfect place for you to make your new home, too.

The Dominican Republic offers plenty of benefits to anyone who moves here. People who make the move are tempted by a few different things, depending on what they’re looking for in their ideal home and lifestyle. Affordable living is the top draw for some people who are looking for a frugal lifestyle and a way to make their money go further when they invest in real estate. The Dominican Republic gives you a lot of spending power if you’re looking to invest your US dollars or other international currencies.

It’s not just saving money that brings people to the DR, though. The rich culture is another big plus for anyone who wants a new lifestyle. There’s always something to see or do, and you’ll love getting involved in the local culture, from food to festivals. The sunny weather is obviously a benefit that doesn’t go overlooked. Warmer climates are especially attractive to retirees or anyone who’s tired of living somewhere colder. Why spend your winters shovelling snow when you could be spending a lot more time on the beach?

Dominican Republic Expat Community

Then there’s the incredible community you can discover when you make yourself part of Dominican Republic expat life. When you move to the country, you’ll become part of an existing, thousands-strong community of other expats. The north shore is a popular choice for new arrivals in the DR thanks to the shelter it provides from more extreme weather and the opportunities to make friends and socialize. The community will welcome you with open arms and there’s plenty to keep you occupied too.

At Casa Linda, our strong and active community is part of what makes living in the Dominican Republic so fantastic. Our Community Engagement staff members plan events and activities to help our community members meet up and have fun. When you have opportunities to meet people who share your interests, you can make friends and build a life for yourself that you love. You can get to know people in a fun and relaxed way and even communicate through our Facebook group to get in touch with other villa owners.

Americans, Canadians, and Europeans have been coming to the north of the Dominican Republic for more than 40 years. That means that there’s a well-established expat community ready to welcome you.
