Much of the Pattaya population consists of expatriate visitors living a retired life here. The relaxed life style of the beach resort welcomes many westerners to establish their second home here.

Thailand being a cheaper place than other western countries, more people are availing the property that suits their budget. Medical insurance being cheap too, many retired westerners are happy availing the hospital care of Pattaya. Since westerners in large numbers form the major bulk of the Pattaya’s population, all facilities similar to their parent country are available for an easy and comfortable life style. Shopping malls, international restaurants, local bars, social clubs and movie houses are found in abundance in Pattya. In many respects Pattaya least resembles any of the Thai places in Thailand.
