*What can you rent in your city for $600?* Is it better or worse than the house we showed in El Salvador? Let us know! Check also our video about *the cheapest cities to live a GOOD LIFE in South America* : kzread.info/dash/bejne/eWiIppWKeNbbqbA.htmlsi=vS1tTmsnbQ-vM5RT

Thanks so much! I have learned so much from your video. My friend has visited El Salvador twice and he loves El Salvador.

El Salvador is the home of the "pupusa" ... the greatest snack food ever. *Yum*

I think the question remains as to what will happen to El Salvador after Bukele. Will the reforms continue after his term in office? I hope so.

That is a good point. I think that his party (Nuevas Ideas) has a good pool of talents, but not sure how cohesive they are.

This is the question in everyone's minds. I think el salvador needs 2 more terms out of him. If a generation ranges from 15 to 20 years, then perhaps it would be wise to raise this new generation under bukele's leadership so that they only know and understand peace, justice and God. So that any other way of life is undesirable and foreign to them. So that only great leaders come from them.

How is San Francisco De Gotera? One of my Special Forces friends was stationed there years ago and liked it.

@@mikecrowley7486 If you're going to need a good school, a good college, or medical services, that's not a going choice. Gotera is a little city far from the main cities, with not very good services yet and probably won't ever have them. It's good for having a simple lifestyle though.

Nope, Japan is the safest and most desire country to come move to but it's not that easy being if you don't know how to speak, read and write Japanese life here in Japan would be very hard for foreigners wanting to live here in Japan.

It's the safest in the western hemisphere.

The ccrime rate in many U.S. Cities is actually much higher than the Cities report. For example, some cities have simply changed how they accumulate statistics so they look better, like not counting the crime if no one was convicted or the criminal were released.

@@the_expat indeed they are. LA, New York, Saint Louis, Baltimore, Washington DC, etc..all have areas you do not want to go in, even during the day. When you defund the police and have George Soros sponsored District Attorneys and Prosecutors, you have a Nightmare. Not only for Crime, some areas have so much homeless street people it is disgusting.

The decadence of our American dreams have led to rot and decay. We lost God along the way and look at us now. Neck deep in our own filth. El salvador seems like a refuge. To all who go there...check your bullshit at the airport you takeoff from. Let's not ruin that place. Amidst all the pain those people went through, they kept God in their hearts and theirs an innocence to them because they were closed off from our perversions. Let's keep them innocent.

No good for me --- I don't speak Spanish and they don't speak English ! - - - Retirement is very easy and it has great weather with a very low cost of living - and the friendly welcoming local people also speak English -- all -- in the Philippines !!! It's also very safe these days on most of the islands after years of murdering drug dealers !!! > Old people don't need the aggravation of learning a language and the frustration of feeling isolated - unable to read menus business signs......while - the Philippines offers up to 70% lower cost of living than the US average ! --?-- I am very happy for the people in El Salvador - I really am - I just don't speak their language -- and -- 'they' don't speak mine. Inflation will rise the more people that move there - already housing is becoming an issue as the desirability increases. Happening in the US as people migrate to more desirable states - it makes them more expensive - creating shortages - and they are then less desirable ? 🤔

@@the_expat I have spent 3 years looking for an - 'ideal retirement destination' - with my specific criteria. -- Many likely are the same in the US & perhaps Canada. -- English -- Cost of living -- Weather -- Safe -- Friendly Welcoming locals -- US Embassy with SS Office -- Many other US expats...... All to 'soften' my landing and help getting situated and acclimated ! - - - The beauty of having many islands to choose from is any 'budget' can be found -- I have seen / found -- from $250 / month in a province - to many thousands in BGC ! There are also higher elevations with cooler temps. Cities at various elevations up to 5,000 ft. In all over 2,000 inhabited islands !!! - - - They had a previous President who actually was a Mayor prior and personally murdered drug dealers on the spot ! He encouraged citizens to do the same and many did. That's how he was elected President !!! = Now - the prisons have a few but many were murdered and fear has kept it w/o drug dealers ! - - - Some 400,000 US expats are living on several islands - retired - some digital nomads and students. Many more English speakers from the UK - Canada - Australia - New Zealand - Ireland....... you get the picture. Many single people are quite content with $1000 / month. Some prefer a bit more especially a couple nearer $1500. Naturally more extravagant spend much more - but a considerable number appear satisfied with under $2,000 / month - unless for a family. I can't wait to get there this fall.

Some of the pros sound good, but you have mislabeled the weather as a pro. El Pital is a mountain. Nobody lives on a mountain. The "mild summer" in Santa Ana is labeled as humid, muggy or even oppressive depending on the hour of the day according to the website weatherspark. It is only comfortable or dry in winter at a time when you are likely asleep. Same goes for San Salvador. More generally it describes pretty much all of central america unless you are a hermit living on a tall mountain. You cannot just list temperature and ignore humidity when talking about comfortable weather. To other readers, lookup Dew Point temperatures on weather spark to find out how comfortable a place really is. Only looking at temperature or only looking at relative humidity is often very misleading. It is the combination of the too that is the difference between having sticky feeling skin all the time (or worse) or feeling dry/comfortable.

@@Globetrotter-jz2uw I am currently looking at Arequipa, Peru. I have been in Ecuador for a half year during the last year. But other than Ibarra, it is either too hot or too cool (or too dangerous depending on where). I would keep staying in Medellin but Colombia seems to have shut the door on me for no reason anyone can tell. But for other people any of those three countries has cities with MUCH better weather than just about anywhere in SE Asia (even Baguio). I haven't been to Cuenca, spent all my time in Quito. I think people should consider it. If Peru doesn't work out I will put Ecuador back on my list. Concerning the topic of this video, Peru has the 2nd lowest murder rate in Latin America after El Salvador. Maybe Ecuador will get there as their president seems to be at least partly emulating El Salvador's president on crime.
