What do I need to know before retiring in Santiago?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Santiago, they said...
"Before retiring in Santiago, expats should familiarize themselves with the local culture and language. It is also important to research the cost of living in Santiago, as well as the availability of healthcare and other services. Additionally, expats should consider the climate and the type of housing they will need. Finally, it is important to understand the visa and residency requirements for living in Chile," said another expat in Santiago, Chile.
"I would tell a friend looking to move here to learn a little Spanish first, don't bring everything you own with you because you can find all you need here and prepare to have a wonderful, new cultural experience because Chile is an interesting and beautiful place to live," wrote a member who made the move to Santiago, Chile.
