"The cost of living in Bridgetown is considered to be relatively high compared to other Caribbean islands. Housing and rental prices are quite steep, especially for properties located near the beach or in the city center. The cost of utilities such as electricity, water, and internet is also high due to the island's remote location. Groceries and dining out can also be expensive as most food items are imported. However, local produce and seafood are generally affordable. Transportation costs are moderate, with options ranging from public buses to taxis. Healthcare in Bridgetown is of a high standard but can be costly, especially for specialized treatments. Education, particularly international schooling, can also be a significant expense for those with children. Despite these costs, many people find that the high quality of life, beautiful surroundings, and friendly community make living in Bridgetown worth the expense," explained one expat living in Bridgetown, Barbados.
