Aruba is beautiful and one of the safest Caribbean islands, but it’s costly in terms of both cost of living and taxes. Like other islands, the cost of food, gasoline, and other necessities is much higher than on the mainland since they are shipped in. Aruba’s top income tax rate is 58.95%--nearly identical to Portugal’s. Great place to visit, as they say, but you probably wouldn’t want to live there.
