520 _a"Golf course manager John Sutton had had enough of lawyers, telemarketers, several of his neighbors and the federal government. So the San Diegan and his wife took early retirement, sold everything they owned and moved to Panama. The Suttons, who bought a house here [Boquete, Panama] last summer [2004], exemplify a wave of American retirees who want to get away--far, far away--from it all. Each month, about 20 of them are turning up in this remote coffee-growing town nestled in the mountains of western Panama, buying houses and starting new lives." (LOS ANGELES TIMES) This article discusses the "increasing numbers of U.S. retirees" relocating to Panama because of the country's "favorable treatment of foreigners,...the relatively low cost of living; the lush surroundings; and the eternally mild climate."
