Living in Medellín
Colombia · tropical
Medellín is a big city of roughly 2,600,000 people near the mountains in Colombia. The climate is tropical. It has a lively, popular feel though personal safety is worth weighing carefully. A typical month of living costs around $1,200. Healthcare is strong, and the internet is fast enough for full-time remote work. People come here for food and eating out, nightlife, live music.
Entro il 2028 qui è atteso un cambiamento concreto: metro de la 80 light rail, 13 km. Gli affitti sono saliti di circa il 60% in cinque anni: chi arriva oggi non trova i prezzi di cui ha letto. Chi nasce in Colombia è cittadino, quale che sia la nazionalità dei genitori.
