"One way to find a place to live in Venezuela is to search online for rental listings. Websites such as Encuentra24.com and Lamudi.com.ve are popular sites for finding rental properties in Venezuela. Additionally, you can also search for rental listings on social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. Additionally, you can also contact local real estate agents who can help you find a suitable place to live. Finally, you can also ask around in your local community for recommendations on rental properties," explained one expat living in Venezuela.

We chose an apartment for security reasons (most buildings have 24 hour security) and it has less upkeep," said another expat in Caracas, Venezuela.
