About Bogota
Bogota is a high-altitude (2,640m) city with a vibrant expat community, excellent food scene, and affordable cost of living that attracts digital nomads seeking cultural richness and urban convenience. The city offers reliable internet, abundant coworking spaces, and a thriving nightlife, though visitors should navigate neighborhoods carefully due to safety concerns and prepare for cool, rainy weather year-round. A strong Colombian and international community makes settling in manageable, with neighborhoods like Zona Rosa and Usaquén catering specifically to foreigners and remote workers.
