@sandra, that is true - I pay in the $300 range to heat my house in the winter... it's only 1100 sq ft and I live by myself. Read More

@NomadLawyer yes I agree, as I noted in my above post ;) when I stayed there I was not in a resort, but found prices in the Luquillo area to be on-par or lower than the RI/MA area I'm in in the States. Prices in San Juan correlated with prices I ... Read More

Hi Priscilla, I can't wait until I can weigh in on this post with actual work experience in PR, but I will say that I have read on a lot of different sites that salaries in PR are 35 - 50% lower than salaries in the US. I think this largely ... Read More

Hey @adlin, Curious as to what you read in that newspaper article regarding regulations being set - did it seem like this was an option actually being considered? Wonder how long it would take to get something like that passed. Read More
