About these cities
About Angol
Angol is a cheap, quiet base for anyone chasing FIRE numbers, with a cost of living index of 39/100 and a 1-bedroom city centre rent of $320/mo. The catch is that safety index of 50/100 and limited English proficiency mean you should not expect an easy soft landing. A retiree score of 67/100 and digital nomad score of 61/100 tell you this is a place for self-sufficient people, not hand-holders. If you want Mediterranean climate and a 3 km hop to LSQ without big-city prices, it works, but bring Spanish and low expectations for nightlife.
About Chile
Safety is a real concern here, with a 39.5 safety index. Retirees on fixed incomes should look past that given the low bar for entry: just $1,000/mo qualifies for the Rentista visa, and a 1BR outside the center runs $370.82/mo. A digital nomad visa exists, so remote workers face more friction than retirees.

About Grecia
Grecia is a budget-friendly option for expats, but the rent numbers are weird: a one-bedroom outside the center costs $631/mo, while a three-bedroom outside the center is only $676/mo. That makes no sense unless you're getting a screaming deal on a larger place. The overall expat score is a solid 79/100, and the FIRE score of 81/100 suggests you can stretch your dollars here, but the average local salary of $658/mo is lower than the comfortable tier total of $1,055/mo, so you'll need outside income. The climate is pleasant year-round, and the Pensionado Visa requires just $1,000/mo, making it accessible for retirees, though the retiree score of 66/100 is middling.
About Costa Rica
Costa Rica works for retirees who want a rubber-stamp visa, not bargain hunters chasing rock-bottom prices. A one-bedroom near the city center runs $903/mo, pushing this above typical Latin America budget destinations. The Pensionado visa only requires $1,000/mo in retirement income, but progressive income tax up to 25% and a clear path to permanent residency mean this is a lifestyle purchase, not a tax play.
