3. Costa Rica
Renowned for political stability, rich bio-diversity, and peaceful living, Costa Rica attracts retirees through its established Pensionado Visa. The visa requires proof of a guaranteed lifetime pension or Social Security benefit of at least $1,000 monthly. Visa holders must enroll in Costa Rica’s public healthcare system, known as the Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social or CCSS, paying a monthly contribution between 7 percent and 11 percent of declared income. This grants full access to public medical facilities across the nation, supplementing excellent private clinics.
