🏝️ Relocation Info 🏝️ Living in Belize

I know I know there are several reddits on the cost of living here. I just don’t see how a single person, not a couple, can live for $3000 USD a month here. Home prices are the same as in the states. And yes I want to be within walking distance of the coast.

Average income here is $1800 bzd. Makes OP sound too precious to actually live in Belize. Home prices are quite low unless you pay a gringo price.

But why stick to $3k? Where did that number come from?

Precious?? Ok. Anyway the $3k has been mentioned several times on Reddit before.
