Cost Of Living
 
The cost of life in Panama is very, very affordable compared to other countries able to offer similar quality of life.  After living in Costa Rica for nearly a decade, I'm amazed at how affordable Panama is comparatively.  I can find bottle beer for $1, have a great sandwich for $2.50, buy electronics at Hong Kong prices and just about any product you can think of that comes through the canal is available at great prices.  If you're a consumer, you won't be disappointed in Panama.

Taxi rides around the city are incredibly affordable.  For $2.00 you can get just about anywhere.  Now I don't think Panama is dirt cheap, but the quality of life per dollar is about as good as any mid-size town in the U.S., probably better.  Real estate prices are indeed climbing, but everyday life in Panama is very, very reasonable.  Outside the city prices get lower although access to the same goods and services is obviously more difficult.  Medical costs are a fraction of those in the U.S.  Retirees enjoy numerous discounts on automobiles, medical services, insurance and simple things like movies.

We'll compile a more detailed "basket of goods" here soon so that you have a good idea of costs.
