Great video! I am from Southern Brazil, but intimately linked to Uruguay, as one of my great-grandfathers was from Tacuarembó, another great-grandfather was spanish, though he arrived from Europe in Montevideo in the early XX Century, then ended up in Rio Grande do Sul state (Brazil). Else my family used to have a few "estancias" along the border, there was one by the river (Jaguarão) that draws part of the border between the two countries, we used to spend vacations on their beaches as kids (Barra del Chuy, La Coronilla, Cabo Polonio, Punta Ballena, Maldonado, Punta del Este etc)....I miss the parrilladas, the Dulce de Leche Conaprole, the queso cozido of Melo's Dairy Products Cooperative, the Paso de Los Toros grape fruit soft drink etc etc.... so many great memories from the friendly country and its kind-educated people. I live far away, but who knows,maybe one day I'll be able to visit again. 🇺🇾 🇧🇷 🇺🇾 🇧🇷 👍👍👍😎🧉

The first 1/3 of the video seems to me more directed towards the tourist, with emphasis on food, sights to see and things to do. Yet, the title is directed at potential retirees. As retired person, I need to know more detail about the cost of living, moderately priced houses and rents, taxes on my US income, sales and real estate taxes, cost of medical and dental care, utilities, libraries and universities, requirements and ease of obtaining permanent residency and future citizenship. How closely a location resembles Miami is a trivial matter! If Miami were my interest, I could relocate there. I live only a few hundred miles from Miami.

Our ship was changing its main port from Brooklyn to San Francisco and the Bennington was too big to go through the Panama Canal. We were there only two and a half days and I could get off on one day. It was Rosh Hashanah so I went to a local synagogue and met a lovely German Jewish family who brought me to their home. I also remember having lunch at a hotel on Plaza Independencia

Sounds like an undiscovered jewel of LatAm with a laidback Euro lifestyle (think Brussels, Geneva). This part of the world may be 30-40 years behind the ‘developed’ world in some respects but it hasn’t lost many traditional values of yesteryear. They have good internet, mobile telephony, potable water and a slower pace of life. So the downside seems minimal unless one is looking for something more fast paced and in your face. (Buenos Aires is just a short boat ride away!) Maybe best not to promote it too much and keep it for the discerning prepared to discover this little gem.

one update regarding cost of living. Uruguay was surprisingly expensive during the years, say, 2007 to 2017. The local currency was very strong at the time, a. strong trade balance, b. government put on quite some debt in foreign currency which it then converted to local currency to spent on whatever. This has reversed somewhat. Local currency lost half its value to USD over the last, not sure, 7 or 8 years or so. So, cost of living now, is ok, wouldn't call it cheap

Hi Harry, Uruguay is a beautiful and calm country, some people say it reminded them the Spain or Italy of the 60s but very expensive!!! And of course we have delinquency. But overall is a quiet and beautiful place. The coast is very nice, Punta del Este, Punta Ballena, Jose Ignacio, Cabo Polonio. Cheers and good luck

Usually home rentals are for a minimum of one year in Montevideo, but you can easily find temporary rentals in the rest of the country, especially in the beach resorts. If you want to stay in Montevideo, check out Airbnb and negotiate a better rate for longer stays.

Been here it's very calm and peaceful but my god everything is EXPENSIVE! sometimes even more expensive that these so called highly developed countries like the US and Europe. I enjoyed my short stay but the food seriously lacks spices, it's just me. Montevideo felt like it's got that old charm vibe ❤ so if you want to be transported back to that era, experience it yourself.

Uruguay is a wonderful country. I lived for three months in Montevideo at Palacio Salvo in 2019. When it was completed in 1928, it was the tallest building in South America. Friendly people. Wonderful cafes. A paradise for classical music and classic movie enthusiasts. But, be forewarned. Is difficult to get by without being competent in Spanish--as I certainly am not. Most ATM machines are only in Spanish. Is not cheap. (You will not see many backpackers around.) And, is only two hours from Buenos Aires by ferry.

@@cosmicbarrilet86 Im not from Uruguay but, although what you say makes sense, wouldnt be even better to see investors going to Uruguay? They spend more money than aretired person, plus the economy moves and more jobs are created. And it doesnt have to be a super high tech industry, even a bakery is better than a retired person imho So: Investor > retired/highly qualified person > "unskilled" migrant All that said, Argentina is bigger, yes, but is more toxic to small companies and..well, money. Also the unemployment is above 10% and is probably purposefully understated

@@SBVCP Yes of course, investors are also very well welcomed. My previous comment was related to a new wave of caribean inmigrants that are arriving to my country (mostly cubans and dominicans), with little or nule education. That is not the inmigration that Uruguay needs. Uruguay is a nice place to invest, its a country without great economics ups and downs, very stable, and contracts are honored, regardless of whether the goverment is right wing or center left. Of course is a very small market, with only 3M peolpe. Nothing compared to Brazil or Argentina

Uraguay is a very well kept secret in the USA. Many Americans will retire to dangerous Mexico or other parts of crime ridden central America, and when you talk to them about Uraguay they act like they never heard of the country, or respond "Oh yes Paraguay I've heard of that place". From my understanding 70% of the population in Uraguay have European ancestry (hence the name Ura vs Euro). So it's feels more like home for white Americans and Europeans. They have a beautiful tourist town in southern Uraguay that is mostly German. Americans who travel there say it seems strange to see so many "white people" speaking Spanish in Uraguay I would love to live there one day

Yes, it is not spelled the way it sounds. Maybe Americans pronounce it incorrectly Americans pronounce it YURA-GUAY, not like it's spelled YURO-GUAY. But that was my point , YURO-GUAY sounds like EURO- PEAN. Hence the name of the country sounds like it was named after the Europeans that populate most of the country I made the misspelling mistake based on how it's pronounced here. Not by how it supposed to be pronounced according to the example of EURO-PEAN I gave. You straighten out the phonetic point I was actually trying to make
