      You actually make it appear really easy along with your presentation but I in finding this matter
      to be actually something that I think I would by no means
      understand. It sort of feels too complex and extremely huge for me.

      I am looking forward to your subsequent put up, I will try to get the cling of it!

      This place is messed up. They found 42 cats tortured and sexually abused to death buried in El Cerro de las Tres Cruces in Belen. God only knows what these psychopaths are capable of. Stay away from this cesspool.

    3. Nice post, there are better neighborhoods in Medellin than El Poblado and gringos need to get out of that higher cost tourist trap.

      The walk-ability and bike-ability factors need to include the air quality more than flat vs. hilly.
      On bad air days, even moderate exercise is not recommended.

      • Yes, plan to collect pollution and temperature differences in neighborhoods during the next “smog” season in Medellín when pollution rates are higher. And plan add pollution and temperature to our neighborhood comparison articles if the differences are measurable.

        • I am wondering about renting in one area and living in another. Would it be a good idea to rent out a place in El poblado and live in another area, which is cheaper, with less traffic, noise, etc?

    5. Gringos need to get our of El Poblado and look at other neighborhoods in the city that are better places to live that are much cheaper and are walkable and with less traffic. El Poblado is overrated and overpriced but continues to be pushed by the gringo real estate companies. Belen easily beats El Poblado. I have a good friend living in Belen near Los Molinos mall and he never goes to El Poblado.
