One of the OPM investigators that comes in for law checks is planning to retire in Cebu City, Philippines. He says the cost of living is very cheap and can get property there for around $100,000. he says there is a magazine called International Living that covers all of this stuff.
My sis-in-law is from Pampanga, Philippines and my brother married her in Cebu. It’s an expat’s dream. Extremely cheap and it’s like Miami but gosh, the property taxes are low. Lots of Americans there. That’s where the Phil call center for Paypal, AT&T and other multinatl corps are located.
