Hello, my name is Sharah and I was just wondering if anybody could provide me with information on living in St. Croix. I have been trying to find out info on places to live and am having the hardest time. I can only find vacation rentals or places to buy. I am curious if I will make enough $ to live, b/c I'm finding cost of living is more then where I live now. How about transportaion? Will I need my car or should I just use public trans or taxies? Any information would be so great. Thank You! Also, I am 26, how's the nitelife? 🙂

Hello Sharah,
Welcome to the message board. If you scroll to the top of this page and click on home and then choose apartments/housing in the navigation you will find a write up on the apartment situation here in the VI, which in many cases involves being on island to find a rental. Not much online. St. Croix's newspaper the Avis has classfieds but it is not available online, only in print. That said there are two recent posts on this message board for apartment availabilities on St. Croix and from time to time there are others - so look out for them. Making enough to live; lots of people are doing it ;), what type of work? A car is a great idea on St. Croix. Nightlife is ok, things tend to shut down early on St. Croix though. You might order the books: Settlers Handbook and Life in the Left Lane; you can read about them and order them at http://www.vitraders.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=V&Category_Code=rel
Keep researching and asking questions. Good Luck.

I live on STX and like it a lot. If you've never been here, a pre-move visit is a must before you decide to make the move.
Good luck.
