the first 4 are on my radar,, however the "|super low cost of living" comments may have been true 20 or 30 years ago, but as more & more retirees from the US are migrating to central & south america, the housing & costs of living are quickly shooting up similar to the US,, think of it in terms of retiring in miami back in the 70's & 80's VS trying to find a condo in miami today,, just something to consider while planning,,
