"A recent survey by International Living named Uruguay one of the safest places to retire in the world. Located on the southeast coast of the continent between Brazil and Argentina, Uruguay is the only South American country on the list. The publication reported that Uruguay ranked No. 48 on the Global Peace Index, the second-highest position in South America after Argentina, which holds the 46th spot."
"Most expats choose areas with excellent reputations for safety, such as Punta del Este. It's a summer beach resort city and education center with a growing year-round international community. The popular beach resort in southeastern Uruguay has a large community of English-speaking digital nomads and retirees, drawn by the area's high-end residential buildings with resort-like amenities and services."

South America is emerging as a popular option, offering not only picture-perfect beaches, historical sites, and a variety of cultures and lifestyles but also a more affordable cost of living, quality healthcare, and established expat communities."
