Possibly buying property on Ambergris Caye but worried...... by renegade1465
My husband and I are seriously considering purchasing land in a new subdivision on Ambergris Caye. We are going the first week of May to see the property. Please, truthfully, what is the crime rate like. Reports say that Belize has grown to #1 in ...

Good Morning Deanna. We actually spent a week in Consejo Shores and loved every minute of it. The community is almost all Ex-Pat's and they sure look after each other. They have routines to travel over the borders each week, either a private taxi ... Read More

Int'l Living - Live & Invest in Belize Home Conference Kit by MyBetterHalf
Just curious if any forum members have seen or purchased the Live & Invest in Belize Home Conference Kit from International Living. If so, do you think it was worth the money? Thanks, as usual! Diane and Larry

XCARET, I agree, why would they tell you the whole story, if they did, some may not find it very appealing. I love the ongoing journals or situational's. I read one the other day and I swear I could feel the breeze blowing through my hair. ... Read More

Mid Life Crisis...Belize? by hawkbiz
Hi, I've been looking at this forum for the past few weeks. I honestly didn't know there were that many US folks living overseas! It's terrific that this forum, and the others at expat-blog are so active. Great info! I think I'm having a mid-life ...

I am going down in three weeks to the Corezol-Cosejo area, and Ex-Pat say their DSL is very good. I have learned that our phones are pretty worthless/costly there. (Verizon) Belize has it on towers so you will need a disposal phone and buy the ... Read More

Dental Care by Cruisin Camper
So I have read about health care and private versus the public health care..... my question is about dental. Is dental care regularly available or is this something you would have to travel for?

Last year I cracked the root on a back tooth and there was just no saving it. Well immediately I was hooked up with an Oral Surgeon here in Georgia, that soon started on my implant to replace the missing tooth....Total cost for the titanium implant ... Read More

I have and continue to read everything I can on Belize and I agree that Northern Belize does sound perfect. I like it all, the mountain and the water and love the idea of being close to both. In the States one would have to be in Calif to get ... Read More
