Anyone living or lived in iloilo. Would like to hear your opinions about the place. Is it a good place to retire? Cost of rental, medical facilities, etc, etc.

I'm in Iloilo.

I've been here 9 years now.  I like it - it has been developing at pace over that time and is now well-served for shopping with several reasonable-sized malls, reasonable medical care etc.  It doesn't have a vibrant ex-pat community though, if that's something you're looking for.  It's not the sleepy place it used to be.

I'm not sure about rental costs but I'd hazard a guess it's a bit cheaper than Manila or Cebu.  My SIL was in a studio apartment in a new development with gym, pool etc etc and was paying 10k a month - that was a couple of years ago so maybe 15k-20k for a 1-bedroom place in such a development.  I'm a bit further out and you'd get a 3-4 bedroom house for that amount. 

Feel free to message me directly if you have any specific questions.

Cheers, I'm going there tomorrow. 

Maybe I'll txt you, if you have the time I'd be happy to get your opinion on how to find somewhere to live.
