Been living here in Buenos Aires for almost three years. Right now, it’s (relatively) cheap. I mean, it isn’t for the people who currently lives here but it’s if you’re a foreign, as the inflation keeps going on the peso isn’t that worthy now. But, as I’m saying, if you come with dollars is going to make a huge difference.
(3 years ago: 20 pesos= 1 USD.
June 2020: 95 pesos= 1 USD. and if you’re selling dollars in the informal market they will pay you $124. and with that you can buy two small⭐️ Overall Score 💵 Cost 😝 Cheap📡 Internet 🏎 Fast😀 Fun good👮 Safety badTap to open
🌧 Feels 28° 82° 26° 79°AQI 211$819 / mo19Mbps×One of the most horrendous cities I’ve ever been to. Too much traffic, ugly architecture and even the food is very much hit and miss. Oh and housing is not that cheap. People can range from very friendly to very much not caring but on average, they’re neither unfriendly nor easy to connect with, even if you speak good Spanish. More than anything, from someone used to the lively vibe in Colombia or Mexico, the place is as lively as a cemetery. No music, not even a peep at night… There’s a reaso

Queretaro is a great under the radar city. For those that want a quieter lifestyle with superb weather year round and a US friendly time zone, this place is hard to beat for the price. One of the largest middle classes in Latin America allows it to have a very high quality of life. Some of the biggest pros are, low crime (lowest I’ve experienced in Latin America and safer than my hometown in the US), cleanest city in Latin America that I have ever been to, incredibly well preserved colonial down

There are not so many things to do in the city and you can only walk around beiramar beach, otherwise you have to take an uber because you feel unsafe while walking. You see nobody on the streets but beggers. The hospitals are the worst public ones usually don’t have a doctor, and private ones has long queues besides expensive price you pay, the city is dirty, the main be

Oaxaca is a city of arts, in its style, vibe and people it attracts. It has a wonderfully peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. I was here for a few months and really enjoyed it. I am more a business type of guy but if I’d be more relaxed I could image spending a few years here.

Nice city. Need cash in many places still hence long lines for ATMs. Safe. Pretty. Goes from cloudy to sunny to cloudy to sunny. Take a bike tour to see the city. I stay in Chapinero which was nice. There a gym called Body Tech and they’ll let you work out there for free your first time. No water fountains though so bring your own.

There are not a lot of places to work from, there are not many cafes. The city is not so fun, but the city is close to great dunes and beaches. The sitances are relatively long and since its always very hot it is not ideal to walk. My score would be nomad score would be 2.

In recent decades the city has evolved into an international Spanish-learning destination, for the high quality of life, tourism amenities, access to nature, and low cost. It’s also a few hour drive from one of the most beautiful lakes I’ve ever seen: Lake Atitlan.
