- This video is about the 10 best cities to live in Brazil. My criteria for choosing these cities is that they need to have a population of over 100,000, need to be safe, have a good economy and good infrastructure.
About me: I am Swedish and I moved to Brazil over 5 years ago and on my channel I share my experiences of living in the South of Brazil.

Very good list, congrats!
We’re having a milder winter in Curitiba this year, and the city gets really charming during the colder months. Come visit us this year again!
Curitiba is a very charming city!
Hello from England! Your videos are very helpful for planning a move to Brazil
Glad you like them!
Great video. Thanks
Glad you liked it!
I like your list. But yes I would consider the suburb in the city or a nearby town. The summer beach season is full on and soo hot. Good for a young person but a retiree, hmm. Vitoria in winter is much more interesting than the summer (for me). Curitiba is not as cold in winter as I first thought but it is humid. Brasilia has very low humidity which I found uncomfortable. Good airport connections though. Maringa is very hot in summer, very nice in winter. Franca is an interesting one. But none of these is my favorite :)).
Thanks for your comments, I will do a video about my favorite small cities and towns soon
Very good List indeed ,
I would just swap Jundiaí or Blumenau for São José dos Campos also in Sao Paulo Outskirts, which from my perpective is THE BEST BIG CITY to live in Brazil... the reasons:
1 -> São José dos Campos is the first Inteligent city in Brazil, has maybe biggest technological spot in whole latin America;
2-> Headquartes of Jhonson & Jhonson, Panasonic, Embraer, etc...
3-> Murder rates (6,5) below 10 murders per 100thousand inhabitants, which is very good for brazilian standards and very low robery rates;
4-> PERFECT location (1hour drive from GRU airport, the largest International airport in S.America),;
5-> 1 hour 20min. drive to the (Mantiqueira Mountains Range, Monte Verde, Campos do Jordão etc);
6-> 1 hour 10min to North Coast Sea of Sao Paulo (Caraguá, Ilhabela, Ubatuba, Paraty RJ)
7-> Relatively big expat comunity
8 -> Infraestructure (Some of best roads in Brazil (Carvalho Pinto, Tamoios);
9-> Between São Paulo and Rio;
10-> Very Modern and clean city, high income population, high number of doctors per inhabitant, loads of green areas;
I would take out Jundai?
-> Too close to Sao Paulo Capital, you keep the having the caos feeling of Sao Paulo..heheheh
I would take out Blumenau
-> Bad location, poor logistics infraestructure (roads to reach are very simple), backwards minded oriented people (of course not all of them, but many)
São José dos Campos is a very good city as well, thanks for all the info!
Hey Nordic.. here is my help list over 100k inhabitants :) heheeh thanks for the video!!
1 - São José dos Campos (best City)
2 - Florianópolis (best Capital)
3 - Indaiatuba
4 - Curitiba
5 - Sorocaba
6 - João Pessoa
7 - Vitória
8 - Brasília
9 - Niterói
10 - Campina Grande
That's a very good list!
interesting list, and what do you think about Piracicaba? What do you think is the best about Sorocaba and Indaiatuba ? @casbarbosa37
@@confuciouskomj.9061 hey there.... been in both Indaiatuba and Sorocaba... never been in Piracicaba, but people tells its an amazing city and full of jobs and fishes to eat..heheheh..
About Sorocaba: Big, modern, near SP Capital, loads of international companies, amazing SESC Cultural centre, good Zoo and Bothanical Garden, lots of bicicle paths....
Indaiatuba: one of best urban parks in the whole Brazil, cutting all the city from east to west... rich, safe, very few miles from a huge international airport.... there is no other medium size city in Brazil that can be compared with Indaiatuba... (Jaraguá do Sul could be the closest comparison, but still far away from Indaiatuba regarding jobs, logistics, location, etc)
@@confuciouskomj.9061Horrible accent they have. 😅
Just kidding. I've heard these are very prosperous cities with prices slightly above average.
Hi, i was thinking about move to Brazil and whenever i did research about quality of life there, somehow it always gravitated toward one city in the interior of Sao Paulo, and that city is Piracicaba, near Campinas. It's similar to Jundiai regarding the quality of life and crime, but it's also cheaper. I think you should definitely check it out!
Thanks for the tips!
I have already lived in Blumenau and Florianópolis are good cities, by way of the tourists the cost of living is expensive, but good cities, maybe I put on the list Belo Horizonte and Goiânia
Thanks for sharing!
You did a good job with this ranking, but I believe that Joinville is a large city with a better quality of life compared to Franca and, especially, compared to João Pessoa.
I was deliberating whether to include Joinville, I really like this city as well
@@nordicinvestor It is close to Blumenau, but I was wondering if the topography might make it vulnerable to flooding. The ocean is close by. What are the beaches like near Joinville? Are there lots of mosquitoes? I noticed that the housing prices are less. I think that a very expensive place is close by.
In my opinion, this cities like: Jundiaí, Indaiatuba, Vinhedo, Itú, Campinas are the best places to live in Brazil. Near the beches, near the montains, best Universities, best jobs, near São Paulo, near Vira Copos airport etc. Safety nunbers beter than USA and Canada Cities.
in fact, they are great cities, with good indicators. but for me they are not beautiful cities and I believe that urban beauty is very important to have admiration for a place.
Very true, there are lots of really good cities in São Paulo
@@giofer3353 You re right. O think only small cities and some midium cities are pretty in Brazil. We have pretty neighbourhoods, but not entire pretty cities. Its because poverty and lack of urban plan, I guess..
@@giofer3353beauty is less important than weather for me. Places that get too cold, too hot or both are terrible.
@@claytonkikugawa6657I like Jundiai and Vinhedo. Campinas and specially Indaiatuba are too hot. Atibaia and Bragança have the perfect weather for me.
I would not agree with Blumenau. There is only one small park in the city, called Ramiro Ruediger. In the summer its too hot. The mountains around are the cause of that. The city is very loud (cars) and to go hiking you need a car and a whole day..
Thanks for the insight into Blumenau
Any city is good if you have money, thats the truth 😂
Obviously there's problematic cities like Rio or Salvador, that I wouldn't recommend moving.
As long as the city is safe
Rio is pretty nice.
Correction: infraestruture in Belo Horizonte is terríble, much worse than São Paulo, Paraná etc. The roads, Parks, metro, bus Lines, services are very bad. No comparison with State of São Paulo and Paraná cities. Economy is much worse. Guarulhos is much safer than here. Im from Guarulhos SP and now Im living in BH.😢
Thanks for the insight
I was considering a visit to Belo Horizonte next time I visit. During my previous visit in December I spent time in Floripa. I flew there from Montevideo where in 2023 there was a severe drought. The irony is that not too far north there were devastating floods. I am not sure what the people in Floripa are like because I did not have the chance to speak with many people. I have been studying Portuguese every day since last September. It has been easier because I already speak Spanish well ( caveat, easy if you study every day). The people seemed to be a bit more aggressive and the housing prices are definitely higher on the island. I am really looking forward to your review of smaller towns nearby. I have researching, but information from a local who has spent more time in Brazil would be valuable.
@@StoneyVintson People from Floripa are welcoming and helpful generally. But There are many imigrants arraving so maybe It is kind of stressing for them. Better live in a less touristic city in Santa Catarina.
I'm Brazilian, unfortunately the cities was good cities in the past,now is home of drugs addicts,homeless in every neighborhood of the city, it's a pity, Brazil is a wonderful country,but in this moment with this bad government etc,that is not good idea to move to Brazil,must of Brazilian are leaving Brazil..
Hahaha! OK! The worst government we had in the history of Brazil was from 2018 to 2022, under the command of "bozo" aka Bolsonaro. More than 700 thousand lives lost, thanks to the denialism from the "minto"! Federal police tampering, misappropriation of funds from NGOs in the Amazon, facilitating the lives of illegal miners, crimes against the environment, against indigenous peoples, over 100 properties bought with cash! Neighbor, friend of a militia member, isolation of Brazil on the global political scene, isolation at the G7 meeting, which was an embarrassment because the "minto" was ignored by both left-wing and right-wing countries! Then a poor person like you, who thinks they are rich, comes here to cry saying that Brazil is like this because of the current government?? Give me a break, right? The "bozo" left a hole of billions for the current government to settle! You guys like to suffer, it must be masochism, the "minto" keeps pushing and you keep taking it.
You sound like you believe that Bozonaro is a decent person.
You must be living in a parallel universe. He's so crooked he tried a coupe and fled to Florida.
Are Brazilians leaving Brazil?
I thought of relocating with my family to Brazil next year.
Can you please tell me more about Brazil?
It's your impression, if you compare to other countries Brazilians barely go out of the country.
Big cities or middle cities the only big was Belo Horizonte.
