    $1500.USD a month is dirt cheap for a cosmopolitan/global city. However, Pat is NOT PAYING $1500. a month. He is paying $50. per night and he multiplied $50 times 30 days ($50 X 30 Days =$1500). The monthly Airbnb rate for that location is MUCH LESS than $1500.

    70% of the planet $400 a month is average rent in such a city. $1500 is too pricey. You are comparing this price to LA or NYC, which is a mistake.

    En bogota hay lugares muy caros q no son faciles de costear para todo el mundo, sobre todo al norte de la ciudad, igual tiene cosas baratas pero encuentras tiendas y lugares muy costosos, pasa que el norte de bogota es todo clase media alta y altay es una poblacion de 4 millones d epersonas, como decir un pequeño pais, lo que genera otros precios distintos a los del sur o centro de la ciudad u otras ciudades

    I’m desperately trying to move over there as soon as possible! I just got back a week ago and spent a week in El Chico at the NH pavilion next to Parque 93. The bang for your buck going over there with USD to COP ratio is insane! I have found three bedrooms/4 bathroom apartments in the same area as well as Chapinero for $800-$900 a month. One day we were there it broke 81° and everybody was dying from the heat! Saying that Colombians are fashionable is an understatement! Definitely motivates you to want to work out and dress up just a little bit more before you leave your house lol But everybody was so nice and not once that I ever feel in danger even going as far south as Calle 45! You can eat 3x a day at food carts for about $10 too! 10/10 would love to live there!

    This specific neighborhood is called El Retiro. It took a few days for me to feel safe here just because it was unfamiliar. Once you settle in, you get a more practical idea of the dangers which are more present in certain areas of the city than others. Only aspect of homelessness in my neighborhood is Venezuelan migrants asking for money.
