Philippines · tropical
Zamboanga is a mid-sized city of roughly 980,000 people right by the sea in Philippines. The climate is tropical. It sits well off the usual tourist trail with average safety for the region. A typical month of living costs around $800. Healthcare is reasonable, and the internet is fast enough for full-time remote work. People come here for diving, swimming, fishing.
La sanità privata (4/5) 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. Il reddito prodotto all’estero in genere non viene tassato qui.
