Location
Open in Google MapsLiving in Bogota
Colombia's capital is remarkably affordable -- you can live comfortably on $2,000/month with rent, dining, and healthcare costing a fraction of US prices. Sitting at 8,600 feet elevation in the Andes, the climate is cool and spring-like year-round (not the tropical heat you might expect). The expat community is Colombia's largest, and locals are welcoming, but Spanish is essential outside upscale neighborhoods, and you need to be street-smart about safety.
Eternal spring weather in Medellín, salsa music drifting from every doorway, and a warmth from Colombians that makes you wonder why you ever thought strangers were something to avoid.
Visa
Digital Nomad Visa (Type V) — requires proof of ~$900-1,000/mo income for 3 months, health insurance, and clean criminal record. Valid up to 2 years. Retirement Visa (Type M) — requires $750+/mo pension or 3x minimum wage. 2026 update: approvals for both have tightened; IT/tech workers are favored for digital nomad.

Next steps for moving to Colombia
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
