A travel agent I know who specializes in Latin America says he can't even give away trips to Paraguay. No one is interested. Focusing on capitals can be a big mistake.

Ecuador (not in this study) has a very large expat population in beautiful, friendly Cuenca its third largest city. My advice. Travel first.

All of those factors you mentioned (people, culture, food) are extremely subjective. He made a more objective analysis of the countries, which is the best considering he is not doing this for himself but for other people to have an idea
Well said, travel and live in those countries prior to making videos. I lived in Brazil and travelled to many South American countries. Germans are immigrating to Paraguay and buying lands since covid started. Over 2000 people immigrated there, majority are against vaccines, and have children. Germany is getting saturated with Muslims, and these German immigrants are chatolics. I think southern Brazil, in Rio grande do Sul área, and Argentina are very suitable for Germans and most of Europeans due to massive immigration from Europe post WW2. Other Spanish speaking South American countries have an unstable political and economical life where you have to own a gun, be alert with constant robberies and horrendous inflation. ( Brazil and Argentina have the same problem but if you have euro, you won't suffer much). Buenos Aires have a lot of European expats, because of facility with visas and buying properties. Weather is another plus in Argentina. Gets really cold during winter, San Carlos de Bariloche is the skiing resort wealthy Argentinians and Brazilians go, and it was a hidden gem, a hub for the hit ller and his gang living there as a hi de outs. Great steaks, 🥩, great food and the scenary of the country is amazing. Equador is good for Americans but it might not be as accommodating for Europeans due to cultural differences.
I lived in Buenos Aires for over 10 years. My choice for long term living in South America is as follows, Argentina 🇦🇷 Brazil 🇧🇷 or Uruguay. I don't think you would go wrong with any of these countries.
@@Figue- it’s fairly diverse, you got most of the country being nature itself, with large fields, some small hills that make for entertaining walks. Beaches are a big thing, and generally speaking nature is always present. Even in big cities like the capital, the blocks tend to be surrounded with trees every few meters, which makes some very specific streets jump out, as they have some very beautiful trees with pink or purple foliage. Not much different from the sakura trees in japan. On top of this, lakes in different places have pretty different “feels” or vibes, some I would recommend going to see the sunset and just walking into, and others make for good kayaking. TL:DR If this overly touristy text scared you, we have pretty places.

Everybody saying don't come to South America but I say, COME TO SOUTH AMERICA! Haha I mean, it's the best of both Western worlds. If you are from Europe, it's like a Lite version of Europe. Still developing, struggling but the best part, it's full of opportunities! With a better climate and similar culture from southern Europe. If you are able to get your income in dollars/euros then you will live like a king and there's space for entrepreneurship
Brazil has some states with the same human development and security as Uruguay or Chile, can't generalize. I live in countryside state of São Paulo and never been robbed, and violence is very difficult to occur in general. When considering a country as big as Brazil the thing is some parts (specifically the northeast region is quite dangerous and poor) but the southeast/south part is much better. São Paulo state being the most developed part of Latin America as a whole, leading in economy and toping lists of safest south America's cities in the countryside. Great video tho.
Yes I must agree. I'm from Canada and have visited Brazil three times. I spent 6 months traveling about the southern part of the country. From Corumba, Campo Grande, Florianopolpus, Sao Paulo, etc. I had a great time. No security problems, friendly people and great food. I love Brazil!
Seu rabo que a região do nordeste é a mais perigosa!! Esse país todo é perigoso. Enquanto o nordeste é exemplo de educação no Brasil SP e Rio de Janeiro com as maiores favelas da América Latina, as maiores facçoes do Brasil vem desses dois estados, sem falar da poluição de SP. Fácil querer resumir o nordeste a “pobreza” quando estamos sendo uma das regiões que mais está crescendo economicamente, e que possui a melhor educação, enquanto a região sudeste possui a mesma criminalidade só que com custo de vida mais caro.
São paulo é o estado mais desenvolvido do Brasil assim como também o mais poluído, e com a maior favela da América Latina, com altos índices de criminalidade e roubo. E fora o custo altíssimo de vida para se viver em locais perigosos Dinheiro n é tudo
Countryside em inglês é o mesmo que zona rural. Em ingles não tem termo para designar o que entendemos por interior. Vc pode dizer que mora numa cidade pequena, ou porte medio, longe ou perto de uma metropole como SP. Mas countryside é só quando vc mora num sitio, no meio do nada.

I've been to all these countries except Colombia (unless you count the airport). I absolutely love Peru, the people there are kind and considerate and the country has a lot to offer especially in terms of food with food being absolutely cost effective. The capital of Lima is costly and with the influx of Venezuelans, the country has become more dangerous but overall it's still one of the most pleasant countries I've been to.
My opinion as an Argentinian citizen: Do not move to South America. I don't understand what could possibly make you arrive to that idea. In almost every country, average salaries are within or close to the poverty line. Owning cars or buying houses is for the rich, and salaries are incredibly low compared to the US or Europe, except perhaps Chile. The only circumstance in which moving to South America could be an interesting thought is if you somehow smuggle in your european/north american salary or cash out your sources of income into local money. For an average us income, you might be able to live in a gated community or wealthy suburbs and enjoy a luxurious life taking advantage of low prices in general. Anyway, it's not as easy as it may sound. You'll need to do a deep research about taxation and foreign currency policies and you might have to do things off the books. Argentina converts your money at the restricted bank USD rate (here you already lose half), and then strikes you with 40%~ taxes (you'll be the highest bracket possible, of course). I've heard Uruguay is much friendlier, but you should do your own research.
there is no way colombia has a such cold climate , they are in the freaking tropic , I am from uruguay , we have cold winters , but Ive lived in venezuela for almost a decade , and it was hot as fukk , and colombia is just next door man .
@@andraskleistenes8586 Argentina and Uruguay are known to be very friendly towards tourists in general but I would like to add Venezuela, people who I met are also very friendly! And anyone can live or stay in the Andes, you just have to go up slowly and if needed you have to make a stop so you don't get dizzy
Don't listen to her, she is wrong. I'm from Peru and if you move here go to the city Lima places like Miraflores, San Isidro, La Molina or San Borja. Never go to the Andes except places like the Sacred Valley in Cusco and Oxapampa.
So surprise of seeing Uruguay 2nd, love this tiny little giant, but its true that we are expensive af and prices are getting higher while income in middle and lower classes lowered!!! Not a great idea to settle here until the government changes
El interior es mucho más barato (con la exepción de Punta del Este, Colonia del Sacramento, y otros destinos turísticos), pero las oportunidades laborales son mucho más escasas
My Ranking as a Chilean 1. Costa Rica 2. Panamá 3. Chile 4. Uruguay 5. South of Brazil. I would recommend Argentina, but not until the peronists leave the government. Right now is not safe. I know Panamá and Costa Rica are central americans but i needed more countries because right now the stable countries in south america arent too many
Me encanta que digas que Argentina no es seguro porque estan gobernando los peronistas. Te hago una pregunta, alguna vez viviste en Argentina como para decir semejante pelotudez?
As a south American I cant tell that those factors change a lot, way too much depending of the place of the country so that could be a good general indicative but if you actually wanna live in South America you should investigate more about specific places but there isn’t that much information so the best is probably just visiting
As for climate, i'd evaluate it differently, i'm chilean, and Santiago's temperature is not representative of the country, as it is vastly different from the hot desert on the north to the icy glaciers to the south, while the center is very comfortable, not too hot nor cold. Also, personally I prefer cold weather, and I loved Bogota's temperature, while I couldn't stand anywhere else in Colombia, it was too hot for me.
Although I agree with your final result, I do have some reserves with your method. For example Paraguay & Brazil are too hot and humid for most people in the northern hemisphere like me, I'm from Toronto. Santiago, Buenos Aires & Montevideo (where I live) are more comfortable, they actually have a mild winter. I loved Santiago when I visited, the only drawback was the headache from the smog. B.A. is the N.Y. of South America with their nightlife and Montevideo is close enough to B.A. but far enough from all the noise. The sad thing is that none of them are safe enough. However I do recommend visiting and if you have a good pension and you like the country life then Uruguay is a gem.
"quality of life" in Brazil? c'mon it is not the same to live in Curitiba or Teresinha... and Argentina? it was once, long ago... the absolute tops are Chile and Uruguay, although you can also live peacefully in Paraguay or Bolivia if this is how you understand "quality" for you. And then there is also the factor of inherent potential and natural richness, where Chile, Peru, Brazil and Argentina lead, although Colombia is also very rich in natural resources and has a quite advanced industrial sector. All in all looking for a balance and specially considering potential and international economic ties and geopolitical alliances I would vote for Chile.
Paraguayan here. Paraguay is indeed filled with immigrants from South America, mostly Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Uruguay, Venezuela. European immigration is raising and many professionals settle their life in Asuncion. Nice video!
Brazil is a peculiar case. Depends on where you live in the country it will be like living in heaven... or hell. It has a huge territory and many huge states with hundreds of cities and towns each. There are plenty of good towns and cities to choose from in Brazil regarding good human development and safety.
@@franciscoq1161 There's plenty of medium size cities and small towns in different states, mostly in the Southern most states. Also in the states of São Paulo, Mato Grosso do Sul, Goiás, Minas Gerais one has many good places to choose from. To name the best is quite difficult . Out of the top of my head I can say Maringá-PR, Balneário Camboriú-SC, Gramado-RS, Campos do Jordão-SP, Campo Grande-MS, Petrópolis-RJ, Holambra-SP, Caldas Novas-GO, Chapecó-SC, Blumenau-SC, Rio Preto-SP, Londrina-PR...
A very German approach. Not bad but inaccurate Assuming climate has seasons, which is not the case for Peru, Colombia and part of Brazil. Colombia has every weather possible depending on elevation. Yes Chile might be great weather if you are looking for European like weather, but for that matter stay in Europe. Some flaws on Argentina. Is the assumption that your are making EUROs or Pesos, because ARG Pesos has a huge constant deprecation Brazil is simply to Big to generalize on all categories. Anyway. Thanks for the viceo
I've been to every country on this list except for Colombia. My conclusion about them is: 1) Uruguay: beautiful and has a great quality of life, but it's mononotous and peripheric. Great place to retire. 2) Argentina: great place to visit, terrible place to live. Amazing wines, cafes, bookstores and culture, but the country seems finished. Argentinians are leaving at a quick pace. 3) Peru: fascinating culture and one of the best cuisines in the world. Still, it's really poor when compared to other countries in South America. Even in Lima, that has a population of 8 million, everything is really simple. The infrastructure is really bad. 4) Brazil: the secons you step your foot in Brazil, especially in Sao Paulo, it becomes clear that it is the "capital" of Latin America. It's a dynamic country with a little bit of everything. It had problems with violence and inequality, but as huge country, most places are pretty chill. Basically, it allows you to choose your lifestyle. 5) Chile: Santiago surprised me. It really is one of the most beautiful cities in South America. Amazing place to live. Not to mention the stunning nature. 6) Paraguay: nothing to see there. Don't bother.
@@zorbathegreek8339 not true. Brazil is an amazing country. Cities like Curitiba, Goiânia, Campo Grande, Porto Alegre, Florianópolis and many others are rich, beautiful and have an amazing quality of life. Keep in mind, I'm just mentioning the state capital cities. I could also mention cities like Maringá, Ribeirão Preto, Uberlandia, Joinville, etc, etc etc. São Paulo is dynamic and has literally a bit of everything. Brazil has a bad image especially because of Rio, but the fact is that it's such a large country, that anything you want in your life can be achieved depending on where you choose to live. Chile is rich and has one of the biggest HDIs in the Americas. Not much left to argue there.
@@joaopedropeixoto8558 It shows that you are completely ignorant, in Argentina if you live well. except if you are an immigrant because many foreigners from chile, bolivia and paraguay emigrate to Argentina to study for free at the universities because the services are free
@@joaopedropeixoto8558 Furthermore Peru is not a poor country, in fact it is richer than countries like Brazil or Colombia in terms of GDP per capita. it is only under uruguay argentina and chile. The infrastructure is bad I will not deny, but it is not a poor country for the average South American like Bolivia or Paraguay
@@VidelaArg no, it's not. Brazil's GDP per capita is over 8.000 US dollars. Peru's is around 7.000; Doesn't seem like a big difference, except when you compare it in Purchasing Power Parity (PPP): an average brazilian has a purchasing power of over 16 thousand dollars, while the average peruvian, aroung 11 thousand. But you're absolutely right when you say Peru is not as bad as Bolivia or Paraguay. Still, everything is simpler when compared to countries like Brazil, Argentina and Chile.
I don't think you'd be particularly concerned with average income if your retirement pension is in Euros or £ sterling. The climates vary widely so the focus on capital cities should be taken with a pinch of salt. Infrastructure and quality of housing should also be taken into consideration. But all in all you did a good job Franz.
I think it would be better if you gave income as a percentage compared to the cost of living. How well local wages meets the cost of living seems more useful. Also, you should probably choose the highest rated city in each country to compare, since the entire point is to find the best place to move to.
A very informative video, thank you. However, it's very clear that statistics can be a bit misleading: remarks I had issue with were Colombia being safer than Argentina; and Brazil having a higher quality of life than Uruguay. I'm very familiar with Chile and Argentina but I haven't been to Uruguay. Using the metrics considered in this video I would place Uruguay, Argentina and Chile at the top, Uruguay may (and I'm purely guessing here) enjoy a marginally safer and higher standard of living overall, but because it's so tiny, Argentina and Chile being massive in comparison, the latter may present more opportunities and just have more to offer in general. Buenos Aires is a much cooler capital than Santiago, particularly when it comes to culture, however the recent Argentinian economic crisis has hit the country so bad that it makes you reconsider everything. Tough choice if you ask me.
the climate in colombia is really great you can choose if you want warmer cities or coldest, for example Bogotá or Medellín. and we have really beautifull beaches. but... the security is something that you have to keep in mint, i'm colombian and i dont fell secure here.
In my opinion, cold weather is better and I dont really think it is a good idea to put cost of living the way it is because if a place has low cost of living it probably also has less economic development.
In Chile we have all kind of climate, it’s depends where you live. As you can see is a long country, from tropical climate at north to Mediterranean weather in the centre and cold climate at the south
I am chilean and i live in Santiago From Chile. I think this city it is a great option if you wanna work, but when i be retired i would like to move to brazil, because the weather is amazing, beautifil women and beaches, the people is happy and there are so many cheap cities for live there.... chilean people are cold and distant.
Hi! From Brazil 🇧🇷 here, I would say that live on BH (Belo Horizonte) can be good to you, Paraná or Rio Grande do Sul, I'm from Rio but for foreign is better stay away from here lol
Even though I appreciate the effort this is not a good ranking. Talking about the weather, humidity could be a huge drawback if you are not used to it. Overall I think Paraguay would be in the last position, first position could be a tie between Chile and Uruguay.
Brazil is not very humid, during 3/4 months of the year not even a drop of rain falls, but we are blessed because we have 13% of the world's potable fresh water
The Avg temperature for Bogota, Volombia should really have been shifted to Medellin, as bogota is an anomaly and just happens to be so high up In the mountains. plus if this is based on countries with the most interest. Medellin has much more expat interest than Bogota.
Very good video. However, taxes can be a big deal for certain incomes and influence quite a lot the quality of life. I hope in the future you can make a new version considering taxes as well for mid incomes for example. For low incomes the ranking is perfect but for mid-value incomes, it might change a lot. thanks

Nice stats but it's all about the ease of acquiring a residency permit or visa. Without that stats mean nothing when determining a country to reside in.
I would move to Brazil but unfortunately I'm currently learning Spanish instead of Portuguese. Most countries in Latin America speak Spanish so I'll probably pick a different country.
Great video but I just would like to see some representation of Guyana as you called every country except that one seeing as it’s between Venezuela and Suriname. Also it’s an anglophone country which would make it easier for English speakers.
It’s hard to categorize Brazil like that. It’s too large, complex and unequal. Some regions are much better than others using your inputs. What you get there is an average that doesn’t say much, and some of the inputs are only representative of brasilia the capital, which doesn’t resemble most of Brazil at all. It’s complicated
Obviously these comparisons are based on capitals, but some of these countries are so big, things like climate vary wildly depending on where you move, if you are in the north of Chile you are in the driest desert on earth, if you move to the south tip, you are near the south pole, surrounded by fjords, strong winds and rain. Same with crime, the south of Chile is very safe and peaceful, but the capital Santiago can be very dangerous, same as some northern cities. So a lot will depend on which areas you move into, unlike more developed countries like Germany, where almost every area has similar quality of life, in Chile it can vary greatly from region to region and general averages don't show this. So if you move here, please research the region or city you plan on moving into.
One question: Have you been in all these countries?, because I really do not see a very accurate way of qualification of them. I have been in all of them more than once.
I think this study is far from right and things ve changed a lot. For example fall, spring and summer (9 months per year) in Paraguay are unbearable due to too warm temperatures, low pressure and above all humidity. Is the jungle. Of the capitals / most important cities of each country considered, Buenos Aires, Argentina, despite financial trouble and maybe due to this, is by far the best !!
My fiance is in n Sao Paulo Brazil in the hospital with covid I wish I could get him here to Fayetteville Arkansas so I can be by his side he has covid 19 an I told him about angel flight
Brazil is a huge place, impossible to summarize the entire country in this rank. First of all, the capital is an administrative center, not a city for living, unless you are a politician or public sector employee.
'We are the best country of Chile, bro.' If you wanna come live here for some reason, and you want to become accepted, that sentence has to make sense to you. Otherwise, get out.

Not much different from the sakura trees in japan. On top of this, lakes in different places have pretty different “feels” or vibes, some I would recommend going to see the sunset and just walking into, and others make for good kayaking.
TL:DR If this overly touristy text scared you, we have pretty places.

Brazil has some states with the same human development and security as Uruguay or Chile, can't generalize.

When considering a country as big as Brazil the thing is some parts (specifically the northeast region is quite dangerous and poor) but the southeast/south part is much better. São Paulo state being the most developed part of Latin America as a whole, leading in economy and toping lists of safest south America's cities in the countryside. Great video tho.

Fácil querer resumir o nordeste a “pobreza” quando estamos sendo uma das regiões que mais está crescendo economicamente, e que possui a melhor educação, enquanto a região sudeste possui a mesma criminalidade só que com custo de vida mais caro.

I've been to all these countries except Colombia (unless you count the airport).

The capital of Lima is costly and with the influx of Venezuelans, the country has become more dangerous but overall it's still one of the most pleasant countries I've been to.
Uruguay 🇺🇾 great I live there and it is amazing
My opinion as an Argentinian citizen:
Do not move to South America. I don't understand what could possibly make you arrive to that idea. In almost every country, average salaries are within or close to the poverty line. Owning cars or buying houses is for the rich, and salaries are incredibly low compared to the US or Europe, except perhaps Chile.
The only circumstance in which moving to South America could be an interesting thought is if you somehow smuggle in your european/north american salary or cash out your sources of income into local money. For an average us income, you might be able to live in a gated community or wealthy suburbs and enjoy a luxurious life taking advantage of low prices in general. Anyway, it's not as easy as it may sound. You'll need to do a deep research about taxation and foreign currency policies and you might have to do things off the books. Argentina converts your money at the restricted bank USD rate (here you already lose half), and then strikes you with 40%~ taxes (you'll be the highest bracket possible, of course). I've heard Uruguay is much friendlier, but you should do your own research.
I want to retire in Latin America but its always the safety and tax that's always the hurdle.

As a south American I cant tell that those factors change a lot, way too much depending of the place of the country so that could be a good general indicative but if you actually wanna live in South America you should investigate more about specific places but there isn’t that much information so the best is probably just visiting
As for climate, i'd evaluate it differently, i'm chilean, and Santiago's temperature is not representative of the country, as it is vastly different from the hot desert on the north to the icy glaciers to the south, while the center is very comfortable, not too hot nor cold.
Also, personally I prefer cold weather, and I loved Bogota's temperature, while I couldn't stand anywhere else in Colombia, it was too hot for me.
Sweet just so proud to be chilean 🇨🇱 i was born on the right southamerican country but there is still some inequalities that need to be fix

Although I agree with your final result, I do have some reserves with your method. For example Paraguay & Brazil are too hot and humid for most people in the northern hemisphere like me, I'm from Toronto. Santiago, Buenos Aires & Montevideo (where I live) are more comfortable, they actually have a mild winter. I loved Santiago when I visited, the only drawback was the headache from the smog. B.A. is the N.Y. of South America with their nightlife and Montevideo is close enough to B.A. but far enough from all the noise. The sad thing is that none of them are safe enough. However I do recommend visiting and if you have a good pension and you like the country life then Uruguay is a gem.

"quality of life" in Brazil? c'mon it is not the same to live in Curitiba or Teresinha... and Argentina? it was once, long ago... the absolute tops are Chile and Uruguay, although you can also live peacefully in Paraguay or Bolivia if this is how you understand "quality" for you. And then there is also the factor of inherent potential and natural richness, where Chile, Peru, Brazil and Argentina lead, although Colombia is also very rich in natural resources and has a quite advanced industrial sector. All in all looking for a balance and specially considering potential and international economic ties and geopolitical alliances I would vote for Chile.

Excellent video. Useful information
A very German approach.
Not bad but inaccurate
Assuming climate has seasons, which is not the case for Peru, Colombia and part of Brazil. Colombia has every weather possible depending on elevation. Yes Chile might be great weather if you are looking for European like weather, but for that matter stay in Europe.
Some flaws on Argentina. Is the assumption that your are making EUROs or Pesos, because ARG Pesos has a huge constant deprecation
Brazil is simply to Big to generalize on all categories.
Anyway. Thanks for the viceo
south American watching this video:
Why do you want to move here?
You should rather visit uruguay chile or peru
I've been to every country on this list except for Colombia. My conclusion about them is:
1) Uruguay: beautiful and has a great quality of life, but it's mononotous and peripheric. Great place to retire.
2) Argentina: great place to visit, terrible place to live. Amazing wines, cafes, bookstores and culture, but the country seems finished. Argentinians are leaving at a quick pace.
3) Peru: fascinating culture and one of the best cuisines in the world. Still, it's really poor when compared to other countries in South America. Even in Lima, that has a population of 8 million, everything is really simple. The infrastructure is really bad.
4) Brazil: the secons you step your foot in Brazil, especially in Sao Paulo, it becomes clear that it is the "capital" of Latin America. It's a dynamic country with a little bit of everything. It had problems with violence and inequality, but as huge country, most places are pretty chill. Basically, it allows you to choose your lifestyle.
5) Chile: Santiago surprised me. It really is one of the most beautiful cities in South America. Amazing place to live. Not to mention the stunning nature.
6) Paraguay: nothing to see there. Don't bother.
Thank you
@@zorbathegreek8339 not true. Brazil is an amazing country. Cities like Curitiba, Goiânia, Campo Grande, Porto Alegre, Florianópolis and many others are rich, beautiful and have an amazing quality of life. Keep in mind, I'm just mentioning the state capital cities. I could also mention cities like Maringá, Ribeirão Preto, Uberlandia, Joinville, etc, etc etc. São Paulo is dynamic and has literally a bit of everything. Brazil has a bad image especially because of Rio, but the fact is that it's such a large country, that anything you want in your life can be achieved depending on where you choose to live.
Chile is rich and has one of the biggest HDIs in the Americas. Not much left to argue there.
@@joaopedropeixoto8558 It shows that you are completely ignorant, in Argentina if you live well. except if you are an immigrant because many foreigners from chile, bolivia and paraguay emigrate to Argentina to study for free at the universities because the services are free
@@joaopedropeixoto8558 Furthermore Peru is not a poor country, in fact it is richer than countries like Brazil or Colombia in terms of GDP per capita. it is only under uruguay argentina and chile. The infrastructure is bad I will not deny, but it is not a poor country for the average South American like Bolivia or Paraguay
@@VidelaArg no, it's not. Brazil's GDP per capita is over 8.000 US dollars. Peru's is around 7.000; Doesn't seem like a big difference, except when you compare it in Purchasing Power Parity (PPP): an average brazilian has a purchasing power of over 16 thousand dollars, while the average peruvian, aroung 11 thousand.
But you're absolutely right when you say Peru is not as bad as Bolivia or Paraguay. Still, everything is simpler when compared to countries like Brazil, Argentina and Chile.
i think Healthcare should have been a category on its own
I don't think you'd be particularly concerned with average income if your retirement pension is in Euros or £ sterling. The climates vary widely so the focus on capital cities should be taken with a pinch of salt. Infrastructure and quality of housing should also be taken into consideration. But all in all you did a good job Franz.
I think it would be better if you gave income as a percentage compared to the cost of living. How well local wages meets the cost of living seems more useful. Also, you should probably choose the highest rated city in each country to compare, since the entire point is to find the best place to move to.
A very informative video, thank you. However, it's very clear that statistics can be a bit misleading: remarks I had issue with were Colombia being safer than Argentina; and Brazil having a higher quality of life than Uruguay. I'm very familiar with Chile and Argentina but I haven't been to Uruguay. Using the metrics considered in this video I would place Uruguay, Argentina and Chile at the top, Uruguay may (and I'm purely guessing here) enjoy a marginally safer and higher standard of living overall, but because it's so tiny, Argentina and Chile being massive in comparison, the latter may present more opportunities and just have more to offer in general. Buenos Aires is a much cooler capital than Santiago, particularly when it comes to culture, however the recent Argentinian economic crisis has hit the country so bad that it makes you reconsider everything. Tough choice if you ask me.
the climate in colombia is really great you can choose if you want warmer cities or coldest, for example Bogotá or Medellín.
and we have really beautifull beaches. but... the security is something that you have to keep in mint, i'm colombian and i dont fell secure here.
I love the fact that hilly Colombian cities have temperate weather year round.
@@Guizambaldi Yeah, he was really wrong on that.
In my opinion, cold weather is better and I dont really think it is a good idea to put cost of living the way it is because if a place has low cost of living it probably also has less economic development.

Even though I appreciate the effort this is not a good ranking. Talking about the weather, humidity could be a huge drawback if you are not used to it. Overall I think Paraguay would be in the last position, first position could be a tie between Chile and Uruguay.
Brazil is not very humid, during 3/4 months of the year not even a drop of rain falls, but we are blessed because we have 13% of the world's potable fresh water
1500 meters in the Colombian Andes has the perfect climate and it is vastly better than anything in Chile or Uruguay.
Let me give you advice. If you are rich you quality of life improve no matter where you are
The Avg temperature for Bogota, Volombia should really have been shifted to Medellin, as bogota is an anomaly and just happens to be so high up In the mountains. plus if this is based on countries with the most interest. Medellin has much more expat interest than Bogota.

It’s hard to categorize Brazil like that. It’s too large, complex and unequal.

@@agukyf7419 question? Are the women their cold hearted similar to women in the U.S?
why you don't add Bolivia
Obviously these comparisons are based on capitals, but some of these countries are so big, things like climate vary wildly depending on where you move, if you are in the north of Chile you are in the driest desert on earth, if you move to the south tip, you are near the south pole, surrounded by fjords, strong winds and rain.
Same with crime, the south of Chile is very safe and peaceful, but the capital Santiago can be very dangerous, same as some northern cities. So a lot will depend on which areas you move into, unlike more developed countries like Germany, where almost every area has similar quality of life, in Chile it can vary greatly from region to region and general averages don't show this. So if you move here, please research the region or city you plan on moving into.
