Cerro Azul, at least for now, is not for your average person. Although it has some very appealing things, for some, it's still a big question mark...lack of infrastructure. But then again, that might be exactly what a person such as you is looking for. Most tend to go west of Panama City. Boquete, in the western highlands near Costa Rica is definitely Gringoville. However, there are a couple of places worth looking into. In about the center of the isthmus is a town called Santiago. North of Santiago, in the mountains, is the village of Santa Fe. Closer still to Panama City, in the mountains north of Bejuco, (which is near Coronado on the Pacific), is Altos del Maria. It's not as crowded, but a little more established.

I found it informative, interesting and entertaining and very enjoyable to read. I am considering Panama as a place to settle and live. I speak fluent Spanish and am accustomed to living in 3rd world countires and enjoying the benefts they offer and doing my best to ignor the annoyances. I am writting for your opinion on Cerro Azul as it is somewhere that from my research, on paper appeals to me. An hour from the city, cool climate, nature on your door step, peaceful. Any down side you can bring to my attention? or other suggestions for a pleaseant location to live but within easy access of the city and the 'western world' facilitles for whenever one has a relapse and a need for a mall? Any advice appreciated. Thank you again, Mark. Hi Timothy,
