Everyone asks what it costs to live in Santa Cruz. Most answers you'll find are from someone who hasn't lived here since 2019.
We put together actual monthly ranges: rent, groceries, healthcare, transport, utilities, all of it. It's Bolivia's least affordable city and the value is still solid.
Real numbers, current prices:

@hispanicnomad To be fair, Andorra is about 100x smaller than Argentina 😆but I see your point. Argentina has a way of wasting tax payers money and causing inflation by terrible overspending combined with even worse management of the "governments funds".
Oruro, nine years ago: a taxi driver shouted "maldito gringo" at me before both feet were on the ground. First hour inside Bolivia, after I took a bus from Chile.
Santa Cruz, today: palm trees, 30 degrees, and I'm not going anywhere. Nicest vibes and lifestyle ever.
Same country. Different planet.
PlanBolivia is https://t.co/9saIRT00Yc now 🇧🇴
Because a residency card is really only just the beginning.
The best part comes after: finding your place, getting your day-to-day sorted, meeting the right people, and figuring out how to make life here really work for you.
That’s what we increasingly found ourselves helping people with anyway.
So: new name, bigger idea, broader focus, still here on the ground in Bolivia.
Your Better Life in Bolivia starts here!
