No matter how bad the economy is, Buenos Aires consistently ranks as the best city to live in Latin America. Once the economy improves, you will probably see it rank even higher worldwide.

Buenos Aires is probably the best city in Latin America. My only gripe is it's expensive now compared to before. But quality of life very good here. I tried moving a few times but each time I look at other options it doesn't stack up to BA.

 

[Vince]

I don't think I could live in any other city in Latin America besides Buenos Aires. This city is great for me. I may be moving back to NYC soon but BA is home to me.

Yep. Just saw this other article. Best city to live in South America.

Interesting that Montevideo was #2. Nice city but relatively boring there. I'm surprised Rio didn't make the top 5. Even Lima beat it.

So far I've been to all of these other cities listed and also Rio and São Paulo. Nothing comes even close to BA!

Montevideo = Small and boring. Nothing much to do at all.

Lima = Dumpy. Great food that is much better but besides great food the traffic is horrible here and the city isn't that great.

Santiago = Boring

São Paulo - I really don't get the appeal. Ugly city. Not really safe and traffic is horrible plus it's expensive.

Rio = Nice city, great beaches, great nightlife. Have to be careful with crime.

Agree with your list. Rio for me is the most fun city. Buenos Aires is also great. You can do it all in BA.

Traveled around a bit in South America. So far I think Buenos Aires is the most livable city. Although I think for guys cities like Medellin are easier to date and meet girls. Girls are more approachable there. Visited Rio and liked it but I don't speak Portuguese.

Yep. I also hate São Paulo. A friend got robbed there by gun. Several co-workers that are from there have bullet proof cars. On the contrary, I love Rio de Janeiro. Naturally beautiful city. Laid back people. Great food, great beaches.

But agree with The Economist that Buenos Aires is the top city in South America. Not even a close race.

 

[RN in BA]

I have not been to Rio but visited the other cities. Buenos Aires was by far my favorite. They only listed South America in this article but I have seen some lists with Buenos Aires making the best city in Latin America. I also find Mexico City to be a great city although it has become very expensive now in nice areas.

 

[Avocado]

No place like HOME. These other cities ok to visit for vacation but for living full time Buenos Aires is best city with best quality of life.

 

[Ron]

Not only is it one of the most economically accessible countries, making it an attractive place to live, but it’s also ranked among the 50 most beautiful countries in the world.

BA definitely deserves to be at the top. No city comes close.

Absolutely there is a reason that Buenos Aires consistently ranks on The Economist as the best city to live in Latin America.
