This time, living in South America will be more permanent. Thus, it will tremendously affect the rest of your life. For that reason, more time and planning are needed before moving to South America in that regard. Also, we cannot focus on just the best city to live in South America because a city has to be in a particular country. Before thinking about cities, therefore, our focus should initially be on the best countries to live in South America.
The laws and economy of a country will affect how life will be in the cities there. Therefore, it’s after choosing one of these countries that you can consider which of the cities in a country of your choice you’ll love to live. In this video, I will show you the 5 best countries to live in South America.
1. Uruguay
Let's begin the search for the best countries to live in in South America in Uruguay a country in between Brazil and Argentina. The country has some of the greatest beaches in the world to gaze upon. It also has a lot of impressive lagoons and lakes that are pretty to brighten up one’s day. This country on the southwestern coast of South America is the second smallest country, after Suriname, in South America. The country has a warm, temperate climate. Due to its location at the south of the equator, the warmest months in Uruguay are January and February during which temperature averages 72°F.
If you choose Uruguay as the best country to live in South America, you may choose Montevideo, the capital city. If you do so, you will be living in the chief economic center and a coastal city, among a lot of lively and enlightened people. In that case, you will have access to a rich infrastructure. No wonder the country is a desire of retirees hoping to spend the rest of their lives on the beautiful continent of South America. If you can afford to buy a retirement home, consider buying one in Uruguay. It allows you to automatically obtain a temporary residency visa which you will need to obtain a permanent residency of the long-term relocation option.
The country prides itself on having breathtaking white sandy beaches and a wonderful landscape of forests and lakes. Another one of the benefits of choosing Uruguay as one of the best countries to live in is that it has a stable economy, affordable healthcare, low taxes, and a low crime rate. Uruguay is regarded as one of the safest places in South America.
Uruguayans are generally loyal to their government partly due to the fact that about 95% of them vote in democratic elections. Interestingly, Uruguay is at the least risk of natural disasters in South America.
2. Chile
The next one of the best countries to live in South America is Chile, a country in the southwestern part of the continent. It is on a long, narrow ribbon of land adjacent to the Pacific Ocean stretching about 2,650 miles from north to south with an average width of less than 110 miles. Chilean landscapes range from arid desert in the north to glaciers and fjords in the south. With its luxurious lakes, coastal beach, spectacular mountain ranges, Chile is a wonderland of excitement for those who want to live in South America permanently.
If you choose Chile, you will be able to ski in the winter and live by the beach in the summer. These things are considered a luxury in most countries, if at all possible, there, there are plenty of opportunities to do so here such that those activities are taken for granted. You’ll soon discover so much in this city that you would find it hard to determine where to get started. Meanwhile, you will spend much less enjoying all those things.
If you want to feel like an urban dweller, choose Santiago the capital city of Chile. It's one of the best cities to live in on the continent. Santiago is widely developed and advanced such that expatriates and retirees will love it. The cost of living is not too high as you can live on about $1,000 a month in a country with the highest standard of living. The Chilean economy is the strongest in entire South America and it’s the least corrupt country also with the lowest level of poverty there.

I love being an expat here in Argentina, but the economic problems in this country can make life very difficult

Some countries in South America offer relatively faster paths to permanent residence or citizenship compared to others. Here are a few countries known for their relatively faster processes:

1. Uruguay: Uruguay is known for its straightforward and efficient process for obtaining permanent residence. After a few years of legal residency, you may be eligible to apply for citizenship.

2. Chile: Chile offers a streamlined process for obtaining permanent residency, and after a certain period of residency, you can apply for citizenship.

3. Argentina: Argentina has a relatively straightforward process for obtaining permanent residency, and after a few years of legal residency, you may be eligible to apply for citizenship.

4. Brazil: Brazil offers several pathways to permanent residency, including through investment or family ties. Citizenship can be obtained after a certain period of legal residency.

It's important to note that the specific requirements and timelines for obtaining permanent residence or citizenship can vary depending on individual circumstances and the country's immigration laws. It's recommended to consult with an immigration lawyer or the respective country's immigration authorities for detailed information on the process.

Peru is one of the best country to live in South America! The food is great, the people are great, the economy is currently not bad at the moment, and the infrastructure has gotten better.

[taylor.london]

Uruguay, Chile, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Colombia

[alidarotondaro]

The best country to live in South America is Uruguay

[benkim]

I lived in each for 3 months to 6 months in the 90s. Argentina was then more expensive than Brazil and Chile!!

[estudiantes]

The best thing of Uruguay, is how close it is to Buenos Aires, Argentina.
There's nothing to do in Uruguay or Chile.
Argentina has more to offer in any aspect: culture, sports, tourism...

[marcelo]

If you live in Europe and you are retired, there is no reason to live in South America. Come to the region for leasure but not for living. It's more interesting and enjoyable.

[marcelodamacena]

I don't guess where did u take this info. Completely wrong. Argentina is hungry. Chile is broking now. Uruguay is very expensive. Paraguay is much more dangerous than you Imagine. But Ecuador is the only one I never been there. So check this please

Ningún país de Sudamérica es para vivir tranquilo a menos para los que le gusta la vida cara y solitaria Uruguay es una buena opción pero después los demás presentan una alza de delincuencia y pobreza
