Living in Cayo Coco (Cuba)
Cuba · tropical
Cayo Coco (Cuba) is a village of roughly 3,000 people on an island in Cuba. The climate is tropical. It sits well off the usual tourist trail and is considered very safe. A typical month of living costs around $900. Healthcare is reasonable, and the internet can be patchy for heavy remote work. People come here for diving, swimming, quiet days.
È un’isola ben collegata d’estate e molto meno d’inverno, e questo cambia molto per chi ci vive tutto l’anno. Il servizio sanitario pubblico (4/5) è più solido del privato: qui l’assicurazione è un extra, non una necessità. È uno dei posti dove vivere fuori rete è davvero praticabile, sia per legge sia per spazio. Chi nasce in Cuba è cittadino, quale che sia la nazionalità dei genitori.
