How do I find a place to live in Martinique?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:
"It took us sometime to find the right neighborhood. The carribeans aren't like USA. Most areas are really simalar. We had to change our expectations on focus on our overall needs not wants. For example - with seven kids it's more important to live next to the grocery store rather than the playground," said one person in Scholcher.
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Martinique is to search online for rental listings. There are many websites that offer listings for apartments, houses, and other types of rental properties in Martinique. Additionally, you can also search for rental listings in local newspapers and classifieds. Additionally, you can also contact local real estate agents who specialize in rental properties in Martinique. They can provide you with more information about available rental properties and help you find the perfect place to live," said one expat who made the move to Martinique.
