A Small Community in the City of Gentle People

Dumaguete is dubbed as the City of Gentle People due to its laid-back ambiance and friendly populace. Now, it has another title to go along with it: Forbes Magazine’s Top 5 Retirement Destination! One of the reasons why Dumaguete is considered as one of the best places to retire in (especially for foreigners) is because of its peace-loving and English-speaking people.

Being a university town, Dumaguete is composed mostly of students and young professionals. With a population of 30,000 and counting, Dumaguete’s economy is thriving!
