Relocation Hotspot: Escazu

For many expats, Escazu is a home away from home, offering American-style amenities and services. At only two square miles, it is one of Costa Rica's hottest residential locales, home to approximately 50,000 people. Adding to its suburban appeal, it's just five miles west of San Jose and has some of the country's most modern amenities, including a 3-D IMAX movie theater, upscale shopping malls, and quick access to Pacific coast beaches. Escazu's climate is tropical, averaging about 75-80 degrees F year-round.
