Cost of Living in Peru

- Peru is one of the least expensive countries to live in South America. You can cover your basic expenses for $2,000 per month or less in most areas other than in Lima. Living in the capital costs you a bit more for the same quality of life as you would experience in outlying areas. If you own your own property, $1,500 per month would be more than enough to live on.

Please make a video about your experience! I would love to see it.
hey, how is your life going there?
Other perspective. I'm American. I married a Peruvian. We lived in Peru. We are now living in the States. She thinks she is in Disneyland. No more packs of stray dogs, constant power outages, water rationing, and offensive people. Thank God for the USA!
@@57rrg USA is completely over priced and corrupt. I’m looking to move to Peru
@@chitown1019 It's your decision. I'm back in the States. I love it here now, after living ten years in Peru. I have a hundred stories to tell about that country. Most of my time there was not pleasant. Yes it is expensive here, but the freedom we enjoy you can't put a price on. You mentioned corruption in the USA. The corruption in Peru is much worse.
When I lived in Udon Thani, Thailand I found it cheaper to eat out than cook at home. I would like to visit Peru. Thanks for sharing.
That's a new one. Crazy! Happy new year.
Welcom to Perú friends.... the food is magically delicious
Hope to see you soon
My dream is to visit Lima Peru.
Hi Steve greetings to you and your wife - I really enjoyed the information you have provided here and have been reading up on some of your previous readings via the International Living since I am a member as well. I am currently in the process of pre-planning my relocation to Peru and have my first visit trip in plans for the upcoming 2023 which I am planning to visit for at least 14 days max. I really would like to establish communication with you both since my interest is to live in the city of Trujillo because I want to be close to the waterfront - I would really value your consultation on this new phase for my next venture in my life journey since I feel it's time to leave corporate America as my retirement journey has caught my interest for Peru in this next amazing chapter of my life journey.
Thanks for this ! The northern coast sounds like a good place for me.
I’m a Filipino working in here at United States 🇺🇸 Las Vegas Nevada. But I want to retire at Peru 🇵🇪
Thank you to your detail video. If I want to live 3 hours far to the capital how much is going to be.? Really appreciate all your information. ❤❤😊
Thank you for all the info !

I lived in trujillo for 4years..beautiful
Hi Hal. Whereabouts did you live in Trujillo? I'm planning on moving outside of Lima but still undecided... so any info would be really helpful.
Is the Huanchaco beach area safe year round? I've always wanted to learn to surf there where surfing originates, such a cool place with rich history.
This is reality speech. They are hottest place on Earth. Very low population. He is good explanation.
desert is the hottest on earth...
Try Dubay in summer :)
Thank you for your informative video
Very informative thank you! Is it fairly "easy" to navigate looking for a place to rent? Tips you can share for getting good price for accommodation?
Hello. You can check in booking.com, homestay or in www.adondevivir.com where you can rent bigger apartments :)
Te Amo Peru
Hi, perhaps after your detail brake down on costs, suggest you to give a ball park figure. I do know Lima and other cities extremely well. The rental fees that you have obtained in Miraflores are perhaps half of what the average is elsewhere. Good for you. When it comes to food, Peruvian cuisine is perhaps the top in the world, and when you mention us 5/2 people that is in a street kiosk. Casual restaurants are abundant. Internet wifi, same as US/Canadá, gas same as Canadá, taxi extremely cheap, electronics 20% - 30% higher than us/Canadá, health care for a casual visit to a doctor or clinic maybe average us 100/visit, new cars price same as us/Canadá. Renting a one or two b/r flat at one of the nicest beaches not less than us 2000/month.
2000$? you would live for it in Europe everywhere:)
Wow 💜💜
You can only stay for 6 month in a year in peru
Why?
Interesting!
Good Audio.
My husband is from Lima, I would love to live in Peru( we would not need to rent) if only it would be safer place for me and better free education for our kid, we stuck in UK for now 🙈
What about for a single person?
Divide by 2 and add about 20% should get you in the ball-park.
The Trujillo area (and that includes Huanchaco) has one of the highest insecurity, crime and murder rates in all of Peru. Living in Lima, as well as in Cusco, will run you by far more expensive, that is, unless you just want to survive, instead of to enjoy life.
What are you hooking the gas bottles up to?
Hello. Here in Peru we need gas for cooking, is connected to the stove
thats to much, for 2 people, budgets for 2 people are usually around 1000/1500 dollars.
I believe is because you are living in a touristic area.
I belive Peruvians salary normaly is just around 300 usd. So prices he is mentioning looks realy high.
Great video
???Question Hows the Health care drugs emergency bills intensive care if something really bad was goin to happen
Hello. You need an insurance health, if you dont have the cost in a private clinic is high for being in intensive care unit in a Clinic and drogs, around 600 US$ per day. You can hire an insurance health per 145 US$ per month, and with that insurance you can pay just 20% in intensive care or drogs, or any appointment with a good doctor
@@Andrew-om1pw that is true, I had an insurance from my last job and then when I stop working I did the transfer to a private insurance that is why I am all covered, including preexistings. But if you talk with a broker you can tell him which are your preexisting condition and he will advise you :)
Can you spell the cities you've lived in Peru.
Huanchaco which is very close to Trujillo City in northern Peru
How did you manage to stay longer?
When your viza finish just crost some border and on way back they will give you new viza :) visited Ecuador for this :)
Thank you i m back in the Netherlands now
I want to go
Me too, I'll be leaving soon
Me 2
@@diegowilkins3276 me too I bought my ticket in April 15th to go to trujillo
Welcome to Peru
So as a American not rich no savings , cant do it probally how are jobs and peru money
My advice is don't go. I am American and lived there. The people have no manners or etiquette. The towns are very dirty. Cheap to live, but dirty with many power outages and water rationing.
@@57rrg my family lives in mountains my father I think got them all out , I wanna go
@@57rrg por mexican, you are saying the same everywhere. México Is a narco STATE. Perú isn't.
$600 for a 2-3 bedroom in Huanchaco?, and Im charging $650 for brand new apartment in Lima, Lince. Seems like Im doing something wrong. Thanks
Yeah keep those prices up and kick the natives on the street fighting their poor currency lmao dickhead
@@tytraulich4987 That is a good point sir. I have thought about it, but that is just the living prices at the moment. Nothing one alone could fix.
@Jorge Garcia Natives People that held the land before other people came in
Like what happened with the middle of North America you know the US.
Hi
Couldn't tap water be boiled to become potable?
Yes
tap water is totally normal in Lima and in most cities of Peru. Of course if you are a foreigner you shouldn't drink tapwater, but i've been drinking tap water before and never happened anything to me. I don't understand why people think tap water in third world countries literal poison, just boil it and put in the fridge, lmao
Yes, it can be done. That's what locals do. It is not recommendable to drink it directly as it is not properly treated, sometimes it has too much chlorine (and other chemicals) and some others none at all which leads to microbs and parasites. That is why it needs to be boiled, so you can eliminate both chlorine and microbs.
In Lima Peruvians( our family) boiled water before drinking. We do not drink tap water in UK because of amount of chloride they use.
how about the language how i the english there
Non🤣
Are you for real? 😂 Stay in an English speaking country. Peru is NOT for you, unless you live amongst the RICHEST Peruvians in Lima and pay almost US rental prices. And they dress up, NO flip flops!
How cares about rent, food, number 1 is health care insurance. No good county peru .cruel government
made me laugh so much hahaha trick currency/unfair world, im heading to Peru to buy a land-permaculture, anyone got tips or wanna join? no vax, thank you
kk
I am proud to be Peruvian
Assuming the 2k per month is for the both of you correct?
It's better to live two people than alone, is cheaper.
Expensive
YOU LIE
