About Medellin
The 'City of Eternal Spring' lives up to its name -- 75-80F year-round with a massive and growing expat community, especially in the upscale El Poblado neighborhood. You can rent a nice apartment for $550-$1,500/month, hire a maid for $25/day, and get private health insurance for $50/month. Safety has improved dramatically from its infamous past, but it's still a city that requires basic street smarts, especially at night.

Living in Medellin
What American expats need to know about Colombia
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.
Cost of Living
60-70% less than US major cities. Medellín runs $1,000-1,800/mo for a very comfortable life; Bogotá is slightly more. One of the cheapest destinations on this list.
Key Fact
Colombia's digital nomad visa approvals have become unpredictable in 2025-2026 — the government now favors applicants in IT or with visible foreign employers. Safety has improved dramatically in major cities but varies by neighborhood.
Life in Colombia
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.
