About these cities

About Maturin

Maturin is a cheap place to live, with 1-bedroom rent in the city center at $100/mo and a single adult budget tier of $371/mo, but the average monthly net salary of $210/mo means most locals cannot afford even that. The overall expat score of 72/100 and FIRE score of 82/100 look strong on paper, yet a retiree score of 55/100, a digital nomad score of 50/100, and an expat community size of Very Few tell a different story. Add a safety index of 45/100, limited English proficiency, and 15 Mbps internet, and Maturin suits only the most self-sufficient expat who wants tropical heat, low costs, and almost no hand-holding.

About Venezuela

Ultra-low rent ($296.24/mo center) meets an ultra-low safety score of 19.3, making this a fit only for the risk-tolerant retiree with a fixed $1,200 USD/mo income under the Rentista Visa and no need for English-speaking care. The Rentista Visa is accessible on paper, but a Level 3 travel advisory and limited expat infrastructure outweigh the savings for anyone prioritizing security, healthcare quality, or a soft landing over pure cost arbitrage.
