According to June 2009 estimates, Argentina has a population of approximately 40 million, with about 50% of its population living in the 5 largest metropolitan areas. The other 50% live throughout the beautiful, mountainous, coastal and inland rural areas spread throughout the country.
Córdoba Capital is the second largest city in the country in population and concentrates 40.9 % of the provincial population (3,216,993 inhabitants), representing 3.3 % of the Argentine population.
Argentina is one of the few places in the world where the dollar is still strong. The currency, the Arg. peso, is currently trading at approx 4 pesos per U.S. dollar (11/10). As a result, Argentina has become very popular with foreign expats and retirees who can live VERY comfortably on $500-$700 USD monthly. Health and dental care is modern and very economical- in some cases even free.
Travel into the province is by overnight bus or train ride directly from Buenos Aires or by direct flight into Córdoba Intl. Airport, which is 2-3 hrs away.
