Living in Merauke
Indonesia · tropical
Merauke is a compact city of roughly 100,000 people right by the sea in Indonesia. The climate is tropical. It sits well off the usual tourist trail and is considered very safe. A typical month of living costs around $800. Healthcare is limited, so serious care may mean travelling, and the internet can be patchy for heavy remote work. People come here for fishing, wildlife and birdwatching, quiet days.
La sanità privata (3/5) è nettamente migliore di quella pubblica (1/5): metti in conto un’assicurazione. È uno dei posti dove vivere fuori rete è davvero praticabile, sia per legge sia per spazio.
