7. Uruguay

Another South American retirement destination, Uruguay, is a contrast between its historic roots and modern culture. Local cities offer a dynamic nightlife, with an array of dining experiences, tango classes, nightclubs, and outdoor entertainment. The coastal city of Montevideo is home to more than half of the country's population. You'll love the many plazas, tree-lined streets, parks, neighborhood shops, and cafes.

Most English-speaking retirees live in one of five neighborhoods in the city: Carrasco, Pocitos, Punta Carretas, Centro, or Ciudad Vieja. Couples who own an apartment in Montevideo can expect living expenses of around $2000 a month.
