Retirement
Cuenca is home to many retirees from all over the United States.[2] They were drawn there by quality health care, a booming social scene and a low cost of living. Americans first came to Cuenca in a slow trickle and many years later a deluge of retirees began settling there. The mayor of Cuenca estimated that about 4,000 Americans are now living there.[3]
Loja is also home to many American retirees who settled there for its scenery and weather.[4] Many retirees there have been accepted into the local community rather than being stereotyped as part of the American enclave.
