The standard of living is higher in Tagaytay than in most Philippine towns and cities. Many wealthy Manila businessmen and politicians maintain holiday villas here. Yet the cost of living in Tagaytay is still attractive for foreigners with a small budget. But it’s not only the low cost of living that attracts so many expats to the Philippines: the country has one of the best retirement programs for foreigners in the world.
