Chivilcoy, Argentina

Capital City

With a population of just 54,514, Chivilcoy is a far cry from the bustling metropolis of Buenos Aires. While the city hosts an annual carnival and offers outdoor recreation at the Alejandro Martija lakeside park, the bureaucracy can be a persistent headache for newcomers. The Southern Skies Astronomy theme park provides an educational diversion, but overall Chivilcoy caters more to stargazers than high-powered professionals. This sleepy town may suit those seeking a quieter pace of life, but ambitious expats would likely find it lacking in excitement.
