What do I need to know before moving to Escazu?

"ESCAZU!!! Even our local Tico friends (who were all educated in the states) and have lived all over CR would agree. CR is booming right now, at least for professionals in law, medicine, computer science/network administration, & architecture/engineering. Our best friend here has to hire software engineers from India because CR workers are so expensive and doing so well here. This is just our opinion of course. For example, one of our son's opinions when he visits us in Escazu is disgust. He thinks why leave the states to just live in an expensive, English speaking, mini-California suburb. He leaves as quickly as he can to stay in the rural & beach areas (he luckily speaks fluent Spanish) to escape our lifestyle. He could never afford to live in Escazu as a musician/artist. Final note and a plug for Outlier Legal and the founder attorney Rafael Valverde who went to law school in the states. Do not make the move without reading his website articles at the very least & he and his team provided enormous support (and still do) in dealing with the puzzling and very unpredictable bureaucracy that is CR," said a member in Escazu, Costa Rica.

"Escazu is a city within the San Jose metropolitan area in Costa Rica. As with any move, it is important to research the area before making the commitment. Escazu is known for its upscale dining and shopping, luxurious nightlife, and a variety of service offerings. You should familiarize yourself with the public transportation system including buses, trolleys, and taxis. The cost of living in Escazu is higher than other areas of Costa Rica, so you should research local housing and rental costs and be aware that it may be more difficult to find more affordable housing. Healthcare can be costly in Costa Rica, so make sure you have adequate insurance for any medical needs. Learning some Spanish is recommended, but many people in Escazu speak English and getting around should not be an issue. Escazu is a wonderful place to live, and with proper planning and research it can be a great option for a new home," remarked another expat who made the move to Escazu, Costa Rica.
