I'm looking to buy an apartment in Uruguay, does anyone know where?

Question

the best places to live in that country are?

Also what are the schools like?

Thank you!

Answer 1

Hi, I've visited Uruguay many times. The best area in Montevideo is Carrasco and there is a great school there called British School. I've visited that school twice and Carrasco is a very nice, sort of posh but not expensive neighbourhhod.

If you dont want to live in Montevideo, then Punta del Este is the place to be although places are very expensive there. Try Jose Ignacio beach, it's nice and trendy.

Answer 2

Hi, Im from Uruguay myself, as stated avobe, the best place to live in the capital would be Carrasco, But there is also Punta del Este in Maldonado, Those are places where people with better life styles live in... and about schools, Well, i went to school there up to grade 8 and i would recomend you send your kids to Private schools, which arent really that expensive.... compared to dollars. Simply because  unfortunally, in uruguay, many kids grow up very poor, therefore kids who go to public schools are usually the ones that cant afford private and if they see something from your kids they might want, they will probably rob them. So just to let you know, because im URUGYAN myself, and my mother was still scared to send me to public schools. Not all kids are bad, but you know how it is..... sadly there are kids out there that have to do things to get things.
