Relocation Hotspot: Alajuela

Renowned for its friendly residents and relaxed vibe, Alajuela feels like a big city masquerading as a small town. It is one of the Central Valley’s up and coming relocation destinations, boasting a close proximity (less than 5 minutes!) to the international airport. Alajuela’s compact downtown is home to inviting parks, museums, and small shops galore. Just a few miles outside the city center, the urban sprawl blends into picturesque countryside, where local farms produce some of the country’s tastiest java and most flavorful strawberries.
