Peru was the heart of the Inca Empire, and today it's known for its beautiful section of Amazon rainforest and its majestic mountains, tropical jungles and rich culinary tradition. Its cities, including Lima and Cusco, have long and varied histories.
Thanks to its low cost of living and friendly people, Peru is a very hospitable option for international retirees.
In popular expat destinations such as Arequipa and Cusco, a one-bedroom apartment rents for less than $350 a month, and a nicer three-course meal for two costs between $10 and $12.
Peruvian public health care is affordable, but expats tend to have their own health insurance and use private clinics. The main health concern for newcomers is altitude sickness in Peru's high elevations.

Peru has an accessible retirement visa called the rentista visa, which gives holders permanent resident status. With this visa, you won’t need to renew your residency permit or pay income tax of any kind.
To qualify, you’ll need to show that you have a permanent monthly income of $1,000 for one person, plus $500 per dependent.
To maintain the visa, you must spend a minimum six months of the year in Peru.
9. Malta In Green/Shutterstock Valletta, Malta 그림>
The Mediterranean islands of Malta boast year-round sunshine and a unique mix of prehistoric and colonial history and architecture.
English is the second official language after Maltese, making for an easy transition for North American retirees.
On the island of Gozo, a centrally located one-bedroom apartment rents for less than $500 monthly, on average.
Malta also offers excellent health care at a fraction of the cost in the U.S. To access the system, you’ll need private health insurance coverage, which can cost less than $115 per month for those without chronic health conditions.

Malta offers a renewable one-year visa for retirees and self-employed seniors.
Americans and Canadians may visit Malta for 90 days. Once there, you can apply to extend your stay for another three months. And then, you may apply for a permanent resident visa.
You’ll need to show you have at least 23,500 euros (more than $26,500) in the bank, or 28,500 euros (more than $32,000) if you’re married.
You’ll also need to demonstrate proof of health insurance, a mortgage or rental contract, and a clear criminal record. Finally, you’ll file a Maltese tax return and follow the minimum tax requirements.
8. Ecuador 그림> Jess Kraft/Shutterstock Guayaquil, Ecuador 그림>
Ecuador has become very popular with North American retirees thanks to its temperate climate and stunning landscape of sandy beaches and mountains, metropolitan cities and the famous Galapagos Islands.
The U.S. dollar is used as the official currency, and seniors 65 and older qualify for half-price public and private transportation services, plus discounts on utilities, entertainment and even flights.
Ecuador also has one of the most peaceful political climates in South America, especially in communities popular with American retirees, including Quito, the capital, and the smaller town of Cuenca.
The monthly rent on a one-bedroom apartment is only about $430 in central Quito and about $360 in Cuenca, Numbeo says. Ecuador also offers high-quality private health care options.

Since visitors can stay in the country for only 90 days, it’s a good idea to apply for the country’s 9-I pensioner visa at an Ecuadorian consulate in the U.S.
The visa requires proof that you will have a monthly pension income of $800 or more. Your Social Security check can qualify as proof of income.
The process costs $500 plus a $50 visa application fee. Once you’re accepted, you’ll need to sign up for public or private health insurance.
Another option to gain residency in Ecuador is to buy real estate costing $25,000 or more (plus $500 per dependent) under the 9-II visa for investors in real estate and securities.
7. Thailand saiko3p/Shutterstock Koh Phi-Phi, Thailand 그림>
Thailand is home to spectacular beaches, beautiful palaces and ancient ruins. And Bangkok, the country's capital and commercial center, offers all the shopping, arts and other amenities you could want.
The hot season can bring 105-degree Fahrenheit heat — so the best time for outdoor activities is between November and March, when temperatures hover around 86.
You can live comfortably on $1,500 to $2,000 per month in coastal Phuket, where a one-bedroom apartment rents for less than $400 a month. In northern Chiang Mai, a full dinner for two can cost less than $10.
Thailand's health care system is considered one of the best in the world, and prices for medical care are significantly lower than in the U.S. The top private hospitals are in Bangkok.

Thailand’s retirement visa accepts applicants ages 50 and over with no criminal history.
The government asks to see proof of:about $25,700, either in a bank account or as pension income; or monthly income of about $2,100. To add a spouse to your application, you’ll need to provide a marriage certificate.
You can apply for a one-year, multiple entry non-immigrant O-A visa before leaving the U.S. and renew it each year from within Thailand.
While living in the country, you’ll need to report to an immigration officer or police station every 90 days with your approved documents.
6. Chile 그림> aaabbbccc / Shutterstock Cable car on San Cristobal hill, overlooking a panoramic view of Santiago de Chile. 그림>
Chile’s temperate four-season climate is perfect for wine production — and for exploring the country’s miles of coastline and beautiful mountains in your retirement.
Urbanites will enjoy the diverse and modern city of Santiago, while those looking for relaxation may find the perfect spot on the shores of La Serena or amid the bohemian vibe of Valparaiso.
You could retire in Chile on about $1,500 a month, which would be easy to cover if you're receiving Social Security or a pension.
Groceries, especially fresh produce, are cheaper in Chile. A nice, three-course meal for two goes for $40 to $45, and a one-bedroom apartment rents for around $400 outside of Santiago or under $300 on the outskirts of Valparaiso, says Numbeo.

If you'd like to retire in Chile, first enter the country on a regular tourist visa, and then apply to upgrade to a retirement or income visa while you’re there.
Once you’re approved for a temporary visa, you’ll need to apply for a Rol Único Tributario (RUT) number, which is similar to a Social Security number. This ID number is necessary to open a bank account, sign up for phone and internet services, and much more.
The government doesn’t specify an income requirement, but you’ll typically need an income of at least $1,000 per person to get by for the first year or two as you settle in the country, says the Spencer Global law firm in Chile.
Permanent residency requires you to live in Chile for 180 days per year.
5. Spain Marco Taliani de Marchio / Shutterstock Dancers on the street in Valencia, Spain. 그림>
Given its sunny climate and the freedom of mobility within the European Union, Spain is a dream retirement destination and a convenient base for travel and adventure.
The cost of living varies among Spanish cities, with Barcelona, Bilbao and Madrid among the priciest. A more affordable option is Valencia, which has plenty of sun, culture and ancient Roman ruins — and is close to even more amazing historic sites in Córdoba and Granada.
The average rent on a one-bedroom apartment in Valencia is about $675. You’ll find comparable prices in the coastal city of Málaga, known for its pristine beaches and Moorish history, or in the city of Murcia, located in a quiet wine region.
Spain’s public health system offers high-quality health care, while affordable private care also is readily available.

To live out your retirement in Spain, you’ll need to show proof of a minimum income of $2,500 per month or $30,000 per year. You’ll also need to secure housing and sign up for health insurance that will cover you in Spain.
From the U.S., you'll need to fill out the necessary paperwork and submit it to the nearest Spanish consulate.
It's recommended that you make several photocopies of your documentation and buy extra passport-sized photos. You'll need those once you get to Spain in order to obtain a foreign visitor number, known as the NIE.
The ID number is your ticket to getting a bank account, internet, health care and most other services in Spain.
4. Portugal 그림> artem evdokimov/Shutterstock Mexico Porto, Portugal 그림>
Portugal is even more affordable than Spain, and it has all the castles, beaches, wineries and golf you could want, to fill your retirement schedule.
Public transit and train lines make it easy to travel in and between Portugal’s interesting cities. For longer distances, you can rent a car or use a ride-hailing service like Uber.
Apartment rents start at just $375 a month in smaller cities — although you could easily be charged $1,000 in Lisbon. Restaurants are very affordable, with a meal costing less than $10 per person and a mid-range bottle of wine just $5, even in Lisbon.
Most doctors in large cities speak English, and international retirees will benefit from having private insurance.

The first step to getting a residence permit is to visit a Portuguese consulate in the U.S. with your passport, proof of income and health insurance, plus the results of a criminal background check.
The next step will be to apply for permanent residency once you arrive in Portugal.
Since the cost of living varies so much between parts of Portugal, the amount of income you'll need to live comfortably will depend on your destination. But to retire on $200,000, you'll probably want to rule out Lisbon.
3. Uruguay Ksenia Ragozina/Shutterstock Lighthouse in Cabo Polonio, Rocha, Uruguay. 그림>
Uruguay is a politically stable haven in South America. With its modern infrastructure, lovely mountains and beaches, revelry-filled summers and quiet, temperate winters, you can enjoy your retirement at your own pace.
A couple from the U.S. could live comfortably on just $2,000 per month. For the best price-to-quality ratio, it's estimated you could live on as little as $800 a month in the city of Salto.
If you like the beach, then Atlantida, Piriapolis and La Barra are all affordable seaside towns. In La Barra, you can buy a home starting at $50,000 or rent one for $500 to $700 a month.
Uruguay offers three main health care options:private health-insurance companies; a public health care system; and private hospital membership plans. Those plans, called mutualistas , cost about $100 a month and are popular with expats.
How to retire in Uruguay Ksenia Ragozina/Shutterstock Fishing boats, Punta del Este, Uruguay. 그림>
One option to retire in Uruguay is to apply for the rentista visa.
To get one, a single applicant should have a monthly income of about $1,500, plus enough money to cover any dependents.
Uruguay also has a retirement visa that will allow you to import a car and household items duty free, and even apply for a Uruguayan passport.
This visa also has some potential restrictions, so it’s best to contact a Uruguayan lawyer to help you apply.
2. Costa Rica 그림> Wouter Tolenaars/Shutterstock Waterfall at the Rincon de la Vieja National Park, Costa Rica 그림>
Costa Rica is one of the most popular retirement destinations for Americans thanks to its breathtaking scenery, affordable and healthy lifestyle, and welcoming people.
In temperate San José and the Central Valley, a couple can live well on $2,000, with an airport, shopping and hospitals nearby. The Nicoya Peninsula offers beach life on a budget, while the city of Atenas has all the amenities you’ll ever need.
In Atenas, a three-bedroom apartment rents for a little over $400, Numbeo says, and a three-course dinner for two costs just $25.
Health care also is affordable in Atenas, which has a public health clinic, pharmacy and emergency room. Some expats choose to pay $75 to $150 for full coverage under Costa Rica's national public health insurance system known as Caja.

Retirees receiving pensions of $1,000 per month can gain a one-year residency under Costa Rica’s pensionado program.
A married couple need to receive only $1,000 in pension income under either spouse’s name. After three years of temporary residency, you can apply for permanent residency.
If you don’t have a pension, you might qualify for the rentista 프로그램. You’ll need to prove you will receive $2,500 per month of unearned income for two years, so that you won't need a job in Costa Rica.
The most common way to comply is with a letter showing that you have $60,000 in a bank account and intend to withdraw $2,500 per month for 24 months.
1. Panama GTS Productions/Shutterstock Old buildings in the old part of Panama City, The city of Panama was founded on August 15, 1519 by Spanish conquistadors. 그림>
Our top choice, Panama, has it all:bustling city life; a beautiful, ecologically diverse climate; quality medical care; and the iconic Panama Canal. Most people speak English as their second language, after Spanish.
Located just a short flight from Miami and close to the Caribbean, this Central American nation is a great base for traveling throughout the region.
Panama City is surprisingly affordable:Renting a one-bedroom apartment in the city center costs about $960 a month, while the same size living space farther out goes for about $625 a month.
You can save some money by living without a car. The city is very walkable, and public transportation costs a one-time fee of $2 for a rechargeable card and then just 35 cents per ride.
How to retire in Panama LMspencer / Shutterstock Senior tourists on a boat going through the Panama Canal. 그림>
Panama has an amazing retirement (pensionado ) program that subsidizes medical care and expenses, property taxes and car taxes, and offers many other benefits for retirees of any age .
To gain residency, all you need is proof that you're receiving a minimum $1,000 monthly pension from back in your home country.
With all these perks, it’s hard to find a reason not to retire in Panama!
