We currently live in Texas, and I DESPERATELY want to move to Puerto Rico. I have my heart set on beautiful mountains. Both my husband and I speak Spanish and have spent most of our lives around the world, but especially liked Latin America. It seems to me that Puerto Rico would be the best of both worlds. We own our own company and can work from anywhere in the world, so jobs are not a problem. We are not wealthy, but we support ourselves comfortably. However, we are no longer young. My husband has been through brain cancer (in remission 3 years now), is a type 2 diabetic (completely under control without insulin), and has had a heart attack ( not much muscle damage, but still). He does have a bit of trouble walking in a straight line or any long distance because of the brain surgery. He is worried about healthcare the most. We want to be outside any city, not in it. Beaches are nice to visit, but we don't want to live there. We are also concerned about the power grid- sure, we have already looked into generators, but then you have to have fuel available for them. We currently live on well and septic, so cistern type stuff is familiar. My husband is worried about running out of water in a cistern. Is there much well usage? Our business is Internet based- you can take a look at SJSent.us, so reliable Internet availability is the biggest thing to me. So, to summarize: Healthcare availability, power grid, water availability, and Internet availability. Thank you!!!
