Field notes
Paraguay's permanent-residency program (with relatively low income-and-investment thresholds and a four-year path to citizenship) is the structural draw — Paraguay is the easiest LATAM country for a long-term residency setup, full stop. Villa Morra and Carmelitas are the dense nomad-relevant neighborhoods. Hot humid summers (Dec–Feb 35°C+); winters mild. Limited coworking density. Argentina is a 30-minute river crossing; Brazil's Iguaçu is 5 hours.
Hot humid summers (December–February, 27–28°C average with peaks well into the 30s) are the structural filter. Winters are mild-warm (June–July, 18°C average) with occasional cold fronts from Patagonia. Spring (September–October) and early autumn (March–April) are the comfort windows.
