About these cities

About Bertioga

Bertioga is a cheap coastal town with a cost of living index of 52/100, where a one-bedroom outside the centre runs $199/mo and utilities just $66/mo. The catch is the trade-offs: English proficiency is limited, the expat community is small, and healthcare quality is only fair, so you are paying for solitude as much as savings. Digital nomads get 35 Mbps internet and a $1,500/mo visa threshold, but the retiree score of 53/100 tells you this is not a soft landing for everyone. Come for the $6 restaurant meals and 4 m elevation, stay if you can handle being genuinely local.

About Brazil

Retirees with fixed dollar income near the $2,000 VITEM XIV threshold get accessible cost of living (rent under $400) paired with genuine safety risk, a 35.5 safety index that outweigh the cheap rent math. Fine for someone prioritizing budget and expat community over personal security. Bad fit for anyone needing English-language ease, a fast PR pathway, or low-crime peace of mind.
