You can say the same about Costa Rica yet the younger people who speak English and possibly college graduates are making 900 - 2000/mo and they are just barely getting by themselves when they want to have things like apartments and/or a car.

The only way you're getting by in Latin America on 1200/mo is to live in a neighborhood you shouldn't, eat rice and beans every day and never have any fun. Some retirement that sounds like.
