I've lived in Panama since 2012 and yours info is probably the most realistic/accurate I've seen. Very refreshing. Thanks for that.
I really appreciate this. Thanks for watching
Hi how can I contact you have a few questions
Plan on retiring there in the future
These videos are informed and do not indulge in sensationalism either pro or con. I really appreciate a balanced view.
Mucho gracias. Thanks for watching
❤Excellent Presentation Thanks to you I'm adding Panama 🇵🇦 to my retirement list. I've 5 years to go God Willing, Thank you & Well Done 💯
Thanks for watching
My friend don’t do it trust me Panama is by far the worst place to live right now. Don’t believe none of that BS these people are lying. The place is trash
Lies are lies Panamá SUCKS
All booked to go back out there in May '24!
Panamá tiene mi corazón ❤️❤ 🇵🇦
Thanks for watching.
where do you live now?
I feel like I’d be just fine booking a one way flight there 🤭
Much love for the Panamanians. ATB from sunny Cancun! 😎
Thanks for watching
I was stationed in Panama for 2 yrs (1993-1994). I got married there (to an Ecuadorian) and my daughter was born there. Haven’t been back since, except a short layover at the airport a couple of years ago.
Thanks for watching
Your daughter has three nationalities. American and Ecuadorian by right of blood, and Panamanian by right of birth. Cool!
Stay Away it’s not the same
@@newvibes3033 No. It's not the same is the early 90s the US finally gave the land back to its rightful owners, the Panamanians. The land is now free for all to use.
Well done video. After watching these videos, and getting to visit for a week recently, im completely on board with moving here. My family is as well. Thanks, Will. Im going to want to talk to you later in 2024 about your tour services
Glad to hear it. And as always, thanks for watching!!
I think moving with family or friends or a group that would make living there more affordable. I want to retire there also but not solo. I have been there twice. The place is so nice.

Greetings from the DMV. Love the video, Sir. Just subscribed. Will be heading that way in December in order check things out as a possible retirement location.
Thank you so much for your support, @gervaisewilliams5829 Let us know how we can help you in December.
I was in Panama this past February and was looking to rent or buy a condo,i found way cheaper spaces than what u have onbur board,as a matter of fact going back to purchase a condo in a few month thanks,i was born in panama cane to the USA WHEN i was 21
I'm sure you did. I didn't report all price points. Just the ones that are comfy for people like me. If you are comfy with less than I'm happy for you.
Que sopa! 😉😆
Thanks for watching
My understanding about local-grown fruits and vegetables is due to Panama's high heat/humidity, especially during the monsoon season, compounded by the voracious jurassic insect population, pesticides are the rule vs the exception. Therefore, certified organic fruits and vegetables are imported, which increases costs significantly.
There are local organic farmers beside the mass production companies here. Just visit a farmers market 🤷🏿
Nice video. My choice is the Philippines. 🏝️
Thanks for watching
You are so lucky to be able to live in Panama! The only way I’d be able to afford it would be to find someone willing to fly my ashes down there and sprinkle them around, which is what I want after I’m gone.😊
I feel for you because this country as a whole has gone from bad to worse
If you can afford the US you can easily afford Panamá. Not luck at all but a well devised plan.
@@PanamazingTours You have to have an income. You can’t just go down there and get a job. You can retire there, but I’m talking about a young person immigrating there.
Question, are fully furnished places furnished with new furniture? Do you have to use that furniture? Can it be removed?
Definantly will be hitting you up soon. Planning on applying for the pensionado visa BUT am not of the age to get all of the discounts (bummer), but I still think the residency is worth it!!!!
You don't need to be of age if you qualify for the Pensionado visa to get the discounts. Please hit me for a consultation so I can help you with good info for your planning. You about to miss your blessing here. 😉
I want to visit 🇩🇴🇩🇴
Make it happen
Oh hell yes, keep the good work. I am now thinking about it. Just subscribed, want to know more, thank you.
Thanks for watching
Hi Big Will. Love your videos! Does your Relocation Guide have reputable immigration lawyers names in Panama to help with immigration? As well as reputable rental agents to find decent rentals in Panama City and other areas of Panama (ones not overcharging and reputable)? Thanks
Hola. Yes to contact info. And of course they are reputable contacts. Not much of biz model giving out bad info. lol. 😉
Keep it up. Tell everyone about what a great deal Panama is. Before you know it, prices will start rising and the place will no longer be very affordable. Thanks a lot!
🤣🤣 Hi hater! Thanks for watching
If they promote it it’s because there is still not enough people here for all it can offer. Just be happy your real state will appreciate thanks to this guy promoting
@@elorenzo98 Most places I know of with high population density are expensive. The more people that show up in an area, the higher prices will go. It's based on the law of supply and demand. And once prices rise, they almost never go back down again. There are other channels that do the same thing. And as a result numerous countries have since changed their immigration/expat policies as prices have risen, and now people don't want to go there because things have gotten expensive. Smart people already know that Panama has a lot to offer; they don't need anyone to tell them.
😂 @@PanamazingTours
Love the video!🎉 subscribed.
Great info! @10:22 the age requirements for the pensionado are off though. I believe the required age is 18. I turn 50 and will be retiring in a few months with a pension. I'll be eligible for the Retirement Visa at that point.
There's the Pensionado visa and then there's the Jubilado discounts themselves. I was giving ages for the discount themselves. Once you are actually here you will see the difference. Thanks for watching.
Panama is a wonderful country, I lived there for 4 years. However, I decided to relocate to Costa Rica, which better suits my lifestyle. Also, the inflation rate is lower in Costa Rica at -1.19%, where Panama is +1.7%.
Thanks so much for watching.
Why did you relocate from Coronado/gorgona to Panama City? Interested to learn more as a future Panama visitor torn between the two areas!
Watch one of the older videos on this channel. I explained the reasons. Thanks for watching.
Thanks so much for the info!! This is great💃🏾
I’m not near retirement age but I’m curious about transportation; would you say it’s necessary to own a car living in Panama City? And are traffic and insurance crazy?!
We aren't retired either. 🤷🏿 Not necessary to own a car in the city. Public transportation, subway, taxis and Uber.
Thank you@@PanamazingTours
It seems to actually be pretty expensive. I don’t know if you are showing more high end or normal places. I would love to live there but pricing is high compared to Mexico where I currently reside. Thank you very much and look forward to being part of your site!!
Panama is the most expensive Central American nation. It is possible to live here on fixed incomes of $800/month. But that's not my experience. I see it happening. But I can't tell someone else's story. 🤷🏿
I am impressed with your candour. Bravo!
Excuse Me, but how much is the monthly HOA fees for that rental apartment?
I'd be glad to discuss details of real estate here during a consultation call. Visit our website to book one. www.panamazingtours.com
I need to make it happen I'm tired of Chicago and America 😂 how much do you think it is for a nice beach house? Thanks

hey bro am from the island of trinidad am planning on going to panama for the first time this year in august for 7 days am looking for a cheap hotel to stay in + cheap food to buy to eat + i will be doing a little shopping can you recommend me please thank you
I just found your channel and subscribed. Can I use my VA disability health benefits or Medicare in Panama?
Thanks for watching. We have a livestream video interview on healthcare where this question and others are answered. Check it out under "live".
You really got me thinking?
Chuleta, Panama is awesome. So when I lived in puerto armuelles I got dengue. Do you think it would be save for me to retire down there or is dengue still pretty prevalent?
I lived there from ‘97 - ‘99
Sorry, one more question. What shots have you had in order to live there? I think I had to get one for yellow fever. Great video and thank you
No shots needed. And do you think I'd be here if it wasn't safe from dengue?🤔🤣 We use a lil mosquito repellent just like we would during the summer in DC.
Hey, Big Will!!! what's the name of the Fonda where you get your fish for 4 bucks? We are living at the Yoo until March 1st and would like to visit there.
I don't know the name. There is a row of them behind Children's Hospital. Small container shops. I visit the 3rd shop from the end of the main intersection. You will see a lot of people in hospital scrubs eating there.
Thank you @@PanamazingTours
My question, how does it work for getting prescriptions and the cost of medication
Thanks so much for watching. This question is covered in our Livestream video here about healthcare. Check it out
In your introduction you mention Panama is an affordable retirement location? I watched the video twice and you must have a different version of affordable than most people since you compare only the most expensive parts of the US to Panama. If a quick search on a cost of living website (numbeo is one) is done, it clearly shows Panama is the most expensive Latin country ( along with Costa Rica) there is. Affordable compared to what? Mexico, Colombia and Argentina are much more affordable if cost of living, only, is considered. If the average retiree relies on social security for his income, I would not use the word affordable to describe what you have presented when rent prices alone in some of the examples you use, would take up a high percentage of that income. I looked at your video list selection and I would like to see your take on a specific video on the language challenges, cultural adjustment and what percentage of those who do make the move last. One study I read indicated within 2 years about half return home. After about 5 years most will stay. I am curious what transitional issues a single person would need, as compared to a couple. I am pleased that you offered a very realistic assessment of the true cost of living in Panama because most channels paint a rosey picture without offering much of a disclaimer on how personal a transition is since we are all different and have a different set of issues we must overcome.
Well, since I know 100s of retirees here and help even more move here, I am going to disagree with your comments on affordability. One of us is actually HERE. Let me help out. You should have said this is too much for me and left it at that. 🤷🏾 Thanks for watching and consider supporting the channel as a member THEN asking for what you want to see.
I so agree. I would prefer real numbers as opposed to subjective opinions as to what is affordable.
@@angelstar7656 I gave you real numbers for someone like ME. There are 1000s of retirees living here so someone can afford it. Thanks for watching and stay open minded to the fact that it's not always about you.
He never said things the cheapest place on earth to retire. He gave his input based on his view. Some people barely have 1K to live on. Panama City won't work for that. Some people have 20K per month to live on. Affordable is subjective. All the information he put in this video is accurate and factual. Whether or not you think it's cheap or expensive is up to you.
@@clintonhauck7893 Thank you for your insightful response. And thanks for watching.
You recently spoke about your extremely high electric bill. Does that alter your electricity bill estimate above? Also, you mention paying cash for medical. Do you not require or recommend private medical insurance?
Our electric is higher than what I showed. My estimate is based off the two previous apartments where we lived. Our situation doesn't require more than catastrophic coverage.
Is Panama safe for kids to visit? Is there anything for children to do besides parks and malls?
Panama is safe. Period. Full stop. And we have beaches, rainforests, museums, bikes, pools, surfing and all kinds of things for kids to do.
Hi my husband and I are very interested in living in Panama but we would love to stay for a short period first and experience the various places before we make a final decision. Could you assist us please

Hello sir, are these prices in USD currency?
Yes they are
Dude I live outside of DC as a homeowner for under $4000 a month.
Dude make your own video about then 🤷🏿
Do you have a visa or do you leave every 6 months
Visa. Thanks so much for watching.
Basically the same cost of living where I live in America now. Geez I hoped it would be a lot cheaper than this living in the city
Thanks for watching
Pensionado: recieves a pension, granted as an earlier retirement because of widowness, disability, may it be transitional or permanent, or because of other special circunstances. Jubilado: it just means retirement. After certain age you are retired and are granted some considerations on fees or taxes because of your comparatively lower and fixed income.
Thanks for the assist but I already know the distinction between the two. Pensionada isn't about being a widow or retirement really. It's about having access to funds. People with annuities or legal settlements can also get it. Thanks for watching!
Let me book my flight. My Hubby and I know we can't afford to retire in the US. It's too expensive here.
Let us know how we can help!
What about animal care? I think I heard a dog barking at the end of the video😅, I myself have a 😺
Yes that was our dog, Domino. She loves to participate too. This is a very pet friendly country. Plenty of pet care available.
January 24, 2024.
I am a US citizen I have been living in Panama for 15 years, and a lot has changed. "My opinion it's only my opinion". Grocery Shopping is expensive and overpriced in Panama. I own an American restaurant in Panama City. Should you decide to live here be prepared for a life-changing experience.
Our grocery bill is much lower as long as we avoid imported American products.
@@PanamazingTours I cannot eat Panama meat everything I purchase I try to buy American products. I will buy Panama meat for my wife I can't eat it.
It always sounds way more expensive than Kansas. 😢
It probably is 🤷🏿 Try Mexico or Colombia
Thanks so much for watching.
This is not cheap compare to Ohio. This is even expensive than Ohio.
Then stay in Ohio. Thanks for watching.
@@PanamazingTours that is definitely an idiot with that comparison😏 keep up the good work👍🏿
New subscriber to your channel... what are your contact info?
Contact info can be found in the description of every video
Hello
Thanks for your budget breakdown. As a 10-year resident of Panama City, your listed costs for service workers is WAY off. A daily cleaner is now $50 for an 8- hour day, including 45 minutes for lunch & break, plus a warm meal at noon. A live-in housekeeper costs $500/month, plus fringe benefits, food, and 2 uniforms. Labour code is strict here, so please don’t run afoul of the law; it could have serious consequences for you. Furthermore you wouldn’t want to get a reputation for exploiting workers.
Thanks for watching. I shared what I have paid. And we pay what is asked for by the workers. Plus a bit more. Your experience is different. We aren't hiring workers for 8 hour shifts. 🤷🏿 I look forward to hearing more about it on your video. 😉
I'm currently int he dmv ( sivler spring)... I stayed in pty for 6 months in 2022, I'm moving back for good ASAP

Why are you comparing panama to some of america's most expensive city. If you're gonna compare you should compare with our cheapest places to live in america. Most people Do not live in those upscale neighborhoods in major cities in the us. The video is kind of misleading. Why don't you compare it to some of the cheaper places that you can live in the usa. You can live cheaper and america than you can in panama city in nice areas. You're you too personally to be more realistic because people are uprooting their lives. I live in the dmv area. And I pay a lot less than that and live very comfortably
LOL. I will take because it's my channel and I'm from DC for 1000 Alex. And because I have done the research on who my target audience is. If it's not you that's cool. Just don't expect me to pivot just for YOU.
But hey. The good news is you are free to make your own video about whatever you like. That includes making videos about how cheap it is for you in America. Since you want to be there I am just going to say this is not the channel for you. Thanks for watching and take care
@@PanamazingTours lol, you're should learn to take constructive criticism without attacking your audience . People are uprooting their lives for these moves therefore, they need realistic information. If you're only targeting professional people with a lucrative income say so . Because most people who are looking to relocate for a cheaper cost of living are the middle class so they need realistic information. Sorry, to offend you but I care about my people. Panama is the most expensive central American country and seems to be getting more expensive by the day . If you're on the lower income levels it's important for people to know so that they can plan accordingly. We need to know the upside as well as the downside to these moves to make informed decisions after all you're dealing with people's livelihood. Most of them are retirees.
@@carlalandrau6033 Costa Rica is actually the most expensive. But Americans are certainly driving up costs in Panama because what we're labeling as cheap isn't really compared to natives. I just moved from NYC to Raleigh, NC, and the market has doubled in price in the 2 years that I've been here all because NY and Cali natives get more bang for their buck paying the same rent they were paying in NY, and marveling when they were in all actuality, swindled. Smh. I want to move to Panama, but I also don't want to help gentrify the place into oblivion.
@@carlalandrau6033 I have no issue with constructive criticism. There was just nothing constructive about what you said. I've been doing this 3 years and I am HERE. You are THERE. And wrong. Costa Rica is the most expensive. One of us has been actually SUCCESSFULLY doing this a while. The other is behind a keyboard in DC mad for some reason about me talking to my target audience. Talking about one of the most expensive cities in the US isn't expensive. Again, it ain't about YOU 🤷🏿 Let's leave it there. Thanks for watching.
@@PanamazingTours😂😂 bro just another american who cannot afford to travel or live like you and others do. They are such liars. DC is definitely not a cheap place to live.
As far as housekeeping, eventhough expats can afford a maid in Panama, I hope they are not being taken advantage of. These are poor people trying to make a decent wage. $15 to $30 a visit is cheap labor. Maids quarters, wow. So sad and they are only getting $250 a month. Be generous and pay them more than $15-30 a visit. People are getting over on my Panamanian people.
We pay what is requested. You know the average salary here is only $25K a year. Expats didn't do that. I'm pretty sure our cleaning woman appreciates the extra money she makes. Thanks for watching.
Can I own firearms in Panama? Thanks!
Yes but why would you? You don't need them and they don't have a lot of guns themselves. Leave that in the US please. Thank you 🙏🏿
@@PanamazingTourswhat is wrong with these people🙄 wanting to bring their craziness to other people countries🤔
1500 dollars a month that is expensive I’ll rather move to china or Russia
Enjoy that 🤣😂
Typically American mistake #1. Comparing prices to the US market! Sorry that I have to say this. I have no idea on how many times I have said that to Americans. “You aren’t in the USA anymore…” Renting or buying, North Americans getting always ripped off. Small rental apartment and Americans pay $1,500 a month, thinking that they got a good price. What is the average monthly income in Panama? Do yourself a favor and google it. Now come back and tell me if a Panamanian can afford to pay $1,500. A good friend of mine did the same mistake. After listening to me, he pays now $800 for a bigger apartment in the same building. I would say, 60-80% of all skyscrapers in Panama City are empty. Go in the evening, especially in the named San Francisco neighborhood on the street and look for lights in the apartments. And yes. Sure there are apartments owned by people who don’t live 12 months here or left already Panama who can’t sell the overpriced apartments! Properties in Panama are for many years on the market. The market is just flat dead. Whose fault? High prices and owners who paid already too much and asking another $50,000 more to make a good business… Sorry. Won’t happen in Panama. I live here in Panama for 4 years now. Same story every where I lived. Americans don’t do their research and trust real estate agents (no way - doesn’t work like in the USA!) or worst - listening to scammers from the USA who do business that way in Panama! Stay away if you can’t do it yourself. What I mean? Walk around and ask around in the neighborhoods or villages. People often know a place to rent. Tell them your budget. You will see that you can safe a lotof money. Mistake #2: Forgetting the basic property buying rules. Like: Hospital, doctors, supermarkets, transportation services available? I had a lot of Expats getting stranded after the pandemic in a beach village where everything was 12km / 7 miles or more, away. No supermarket, no doctor, no hospital in reach without driving to Las Tablas. The next bigger place. Results? Complaining North Americans who thought that the nice view is worth the overpriced properties. 60% of the properties for years - on the market. Honestly? I can’t eat a nice view, and a nice view isn’t replacing a hospital. And yes. Not everyone likes to live like I do. I do not live in a gated community. I live in Panama - Panama style! Means. I have no air conditioning in my rented 2 bedroom house. My neighbors are Panamanians. I’m surrounded by people who were born here. Rent I am paying? $350 a month. Not on the beach. Why? After living 10 months on the beach, with people showing up on Friday afternoon and staying until Sunday evening, oversized loudspeakers in the cars, I just couldn’t stand it anymore. My rental house is 3 minutes from the beach away. I still can hear the music some times. But only if everything is quiet in my street. And by all means. The people who have $4,000 to spend in a month, I am sure, there are other nicer and safer countries to live in. Europe for example. Spain, Italy, Portugal.
LOL. Typical American pushy and rude response. What makes you comfy enough to speak to a stranger this way?? Here's an idea. Start your own channel and put all this in it. Until then...thanks for watching!
What part of Panama are you spending $350 a month for a house ? I wouldn't need a house a regular 1 bdrm apt would be fine. That loud music thing you mentioned reminds me of the colmados in DR. Lol !!! I too would prefer living amongst the natives
@@user-oh4gh6eo6y Panama West (Oeste) Nueva Gorgona. 3 Minutes to Coronado where all the supermarkets are.
@@PanamazingTours LOL Panamazing Tours you are the best!
Nice info but your prices are odd. Since when did u rent or buy in San Francisco? Were u referring to the one in CA, rents here start at $3,000. Do not know about DC. Wonder if your costs in Panama are as off.
LOL. Your energy is just off. Who taught you it is ok to speak to strangers this way. Raised by wolves?? Maybe YOU need to do more research. I do this for a living. Here is a rental in San Francisco for $650. You are not welcome here with that kind of energy.
