Life In Jamaica
Living in Jamaica is not exactly as cheap as others, but this is compensated for by the higher quality of life. The average 2-bedroom flat only costs $540, while utilities will set you back by $72. Food is reasonably priced too. You can get a pound of chicken breast for $2.35, a 2-liter bottle of Coke for $1.50, and a pound of apples for $3.50. Gas is costly, but this should not matter as Jamaica offers cheap public transportation to take you anywhere you want. You only need to pay $33 for a monthly pass. Shopping is also exciting, but keep in mind you won’t find major chain stores like Walmart there. Public healthcare is free, but services are not exactly topnotch. Even private hospitals leave much to be desired. For anything more than minor injuries and concerns, it is better to go to Europe or North America.

You will certainly find something to like in this beautiful country in Central America. In the West, you will find lakes, mountains, and volcanoes.
