You might get a copy of the book I wrote on the subject, Adapter Kit: Belize.
It's the only comprehensive, up-to-date guide to living, retiring and buying
property in Belize. Your library might have it or if not it's available from
Amazon.com and larger bookstores (or any bookstore can order it.)
Living in Belize can be cheap, or expensive, depending on where in Belize and
your lifestyle.
The Belize government encourages retirees age 45 and over and has a program
called the Qualified Retired Persons Incentive Program where you can quickly
get residency and import a car, boat and airplane (if you have one) and your
household goods tax-free.
