I have actually been there already and bought my first Hectare of Land on a beach. You are allowed to own and build on the beach on Mars mainly because the whole planet is beach.
The locals are friendly but when you go to bars watch out for your bar bills. I heard a story recently of two Heinekens being added to someones bill that they did not have.
The variety of food is great. They already have a Burger King, a Ben & Jerry's ice cream parlor, Starbucks and a Tesco Superstore is planned for opening in AD 1004 (our years are nearly twice as long as those on Earth). Our day is about the same nut just a little longer giving us just over 600 Martian Days in one Martian Year.
I see Mars only as a stop off until I can get to Titan. This is my dream location with its lakes of methane and enough energy to last 1 million earth years I can get myself that eight wheeled all wheel drive 150 tonne 65,000 BHP truck that I have always wanted without feeling guilty about wasting the planets energy resources.
The downside is that there is not much food available and I will have to rely on Tesco Home delivery and order over the Internet.
On a positive side you can fart as much as you like and nobody can possibly get wind of it.
People like minded gas guzzlers like Arnold Swarzeneger and Nick Mason have already bought holiday homes there so it's only a matter of time before it becomes the next Palm Springs. There are already plans for Golf courses, fitness studios and beauty salons. There is even talk of an Indian Tailors and a Chinese take away.

I will introduce my own political party and when elected I will re-introduce that greatest of French ideas, the Penal Colony. Anybody found guilty of lying , cheating, scamming of trolling will be packed in to an inter galactic space freighter and sent to live for the rest of their lives on Pluto which I shall rename New Australia.
