  • power goes out 12 times a week, water’s on for only 5 hours a week, internet drops out every 2 hours, (only alternate option is musky),

    I visited for 2 months the only one of these I experienced was the internet going out once.

    no cops, no fire dept, no schools

    That’s just not true at all.

    trash is just piled up with no plan whatsoever,

    I’m from NYC, so I guess I’m just used to trash.

    no public transit

    That’s true, but apartments in the middle of the city are so cheap that most things were within walking distance for me.

    more superfund sites per sq mile than any state,

    I’ve never looked at this when deciding where to live, but I just looked it up and there are way more within 50 miles of me than there are in all of Puerto Rico.

    more taxes than in the USA

    Still way cheaper cost of living than where I live.

    hurricanes, earthquakes and narcos.

    Those are the only things you mentioned that are an actual concern to me. Since I work remotely, I’d have the luxury of leaving temporary if there was a massive natural disaster.
