Broken Record Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 How many of the regular posters live in Pattaya, I don't mean for a few weeks a year, I mean fulltime or main residence ? At a guess, I'd say not many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSixpack Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 You're right, not many. Most are posting from council estates in the UK or from their parents' basements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a guess, I'd say not many. I think quite a lot. Anyone living anywhere else would probably have better things to do with their time. I know I would.

nickmanchester2 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 no, i would like to live there, but I cant afford a 1 bedroom, only can afford a studio - however, in jomtien where I am now, can afford a 1 bed, one living room (8700b) and before this darkside and I think it was 10,000 for a big 1 bedroom house, but too isolated for me out there.

wpcoe Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Bought a Jomtien condo in 2004 that I've lived in full-time, but took a break for 2.5 years in Hua Hin, a 9 month break to check out Mérida, Mexico, and currently on another one-year sabbatical in Hua Hin. Bought another Jomtien condo in August (2016) and will be moving back full-time next month when the current tenants move out. Even though I currently do not live in Jomtien full-time, I still visit every couple months since my original condo is sitting empty. (Long story. Don't ask.) I usually spend about a week each visit. During my condo search, my visits were more frequent, but shorter in duration. So, to address the insinuation that folks posting here are probably out of touch with Pattaya, I consider myself very current on Pattaya/Jomtien affairs, hence am active in this forum. (Not sure why I sound so defensive. I'm too lazy to reword, the post. It is what it is.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
