There are just few cities in the world, which can claim as impressive a mix of economic power, affordability, modernity, and geographic location as Santiago/Chile.
– Jobs for both non-natives and locals, coming from the international business, which drives.
– Excellent medical facilities, life expectancies higher than the global average and a low rate of heart disease among males, as shown by a recent World Health Organization report, make health care in Santiago comparable to that in any first world city.
– Currently, South America’s tallest building is being constructed in Santiago; indeed, the city is becoming one of the emerging global centers of the Western Hemisphere.
– Has one of the cleanest, most efficient subway systems in the world.
– Wine, pisco (the national liquor), complement dancing. The nights out can turn big, especially in the city’s bohemian quarter, Bellavista, where the clubs are open until 3 or 4 a.m. all nights of the week.
– If you need to get away for the weekend, Santiago is at one hour from both ski and surf. The climate often compared to that of California, is favorable for hiking, river rafting, snowboarding, and scuba diving.
