“Uruguay is a strongly middle-class country, unlike much of Central and South America. Democracy and the rule of law are well entrenched; government is stable and transparent. It’s the safest country south of the border, and the wealth gap is narrow, meaning there’s no social unrest or crime fueled by angry have-nots. You don’t find beggars roaming the streets, or bare-foot and impoverished children panhandling. The literacy rate matches that in the U.S. There’s no need to pay bribes. And there’s no mañana attitude. The country is clean and tidy. The beaches are beautiful, many wild and often empty. The national highways are first world and well maintained.”
