Jamaica Location and Travel here
Jamaica Culture and History
Before the arrival of Christopher Columbus in 1494, the Arawak Indians inhabited the Caribbean Island of Jamaica. A few years later, it was colonized by the Spanish whose rule was then replaced by the British, who in turn made Jamaica one of the most important slave colonies in the Caribbean. In just a few years, the entire island was divided into large plantations, which were worked through forced labor imported from Africa. After slavery was abolished in 1834, the Caribbean Island then became fairly prosperous under an orthodox colonial rule, which lasted till the 20th century.
The Jamaican culture is deeply influenced by the various communities that colonized this island at different periods. The Jamaican people of today have mixed traditions from European, East Indian, East Mediterranean, African, Arabic, and Chinese ancestors. The culture of the native Arawak Indians was never rooted in Jamaica. The 300-year-old British rule is reflected in both the customs as well as the language of Jamaica.
When thinking about Jamaica, the first thing that comes to mind is reggae, which is a condensed form of Jamaican music. Highly political in nature, reggae is a genre of music that has emerged from traditional Jamaican music having Black American and African roots. In the 20th century, the famous singer Bob Marley popularized reggae. Jamaican folk music is said to have originated in West Africa.
Traditionally, Jamaicans are religious people and celebrate most traditional Christian holidays. Christmas is celebrated with communion services, concerts, the singing of carols, candlelight ceremonies, and overnight prayer meetings. From the lighting of the Christmas tree to the Christmas meal, Christmas is by far the most celebrated festival in Jamaica.
Jamaica Climate
The great weather on the Caribbean Island of Jamaica makes it a sough-after Caribbean real estate location. Blessed with a tropical climate, Jamaica has a temperature that averages at 27°C. The heat and humidity are moderated by the northeastern tradewinds that blow at frequent intervals. The temperatures in the mountain regions and plateaus are lower. There is a lot of rainfall, although it varies from one region to another. Jamaica is subject to hurricanes in early autumn and late summer.
During the day you should wear casual clothes, while swimsuits and shorts must be confined to the poolside and beaches. Evening attire depends on the place you are visiting. You can be extremely casual in Negril, but during high season in other resort areas, you should dress formally. Some restaurants and hotels require men to wear dinner jackets and ties for dinner. here
Jamaica is situated roughly 145 kilometers south of Cuba. It extends from 235km north to south, and 82km east to west. The coastline stretches for 1,022km. The capital city of Kingston is situated on the southeastern coast. [links]
Jamaica Real Estate, Economy and Infrastructure
The Jamaican economy has undergone changes since 1945, when the island was entirely dependent on agricultural products like bananas, cocoa, sugar, and coffee. Since then, the island has become one of the world’s largest bauxite producers, even though this industry had suffered greatly in the 1980’s from low world prices and high local costs. Jamaica has also become a major tourist destination for North Americans. Since 1983, the tourism industry has been Jamaica’s foremost foreign exchange earner. The official currency of Jamaica is the Jamaican Dollar (J$). (J$1 = USJamaica, with its rambunctious culture of Rastafarianism and reggae, its lush emerald rain forests, its waterfalls that descend into crystal clear streams, its rivers, mountains, white sandy beaches, its art, and cuisine, is one of the most spectacular and culturally rich Caribbean islands. Jamaica is also a poor Caribbean island that almost entirely depends on tourism for its economy.
So, whenever Jamaica makes the headlines, it is either described as a great tourist destination or a place with a few challenges. However, the legendary culture of the Caribbean Island of Jamaica is seen in the dry wit of the young locals who pilot tourists around the island, and is heard in its reggae music. The raw beauty and vivacious culture of Jamaica are still its greatest assets, and there is enough optimism and camaraderie among the people to make you overlook the hassles..01766).
Jamaica, once termed ‘The Pearl of the British Antilles Empire’, has now become a popular tourist and Caribbean real estate destination. The most visited island in the Caribbean, it is now one of the most sought after destinations for returning residents and tourists. Jamaica has recently revised its foreign investor and real estate laws. Presently, both locals as well as foreigners can buy or sell Jamaica real estate and take their profits to any part of the world. Both residents as well as non-residents can receive about 70% equity financing from most local banks to purchase real estate on the island.
The hottest areas in Jamaica are the parishes of St. Ann, as well as the coastal area of St. Mary. The reason is that they are well developed and also happen to be the fastest growing areas on the island. Being middle class residential areas, they are clean, quiet, have attractions like the Dunns River, and are very close to the beach. Crime here is practically nonexistent and these areas are less than half an hour away from Ocho Rios and Montego Bay.
From country estates to beachfront villas to family homes to condominiums or apartment hotels, and even historic plantations, the Jamaica real estate market is booming. For instance, a two-bedroom apartment in Kingston would cost you about $185,000, while a condo in St. Mary would start at roughly $22,000 USD. For the more budget conscious Caribbean real estate buyer, there are studio apartments that cost about $33,000 USD. On the other hand, the starting price of a lot would be $50,000 USD.
