CoLivings in San José

Discover why San José is perfect for coliving

San José surprised me. It feels alive but not frantic. Old painted houses sit next to coffee shops. People move slow. Pura vida is a real thing here. The climate is mild. Days are warm. Evenings can be cool. It rains a lot in green season. For some, that will be amazing. Cost of living is fair. Cheaper than the US but not as cheap as other parts of Central America. Internet is reliable in most cafes and the main coworking spots. I found fast fiber in my apartment building and steady Wi Fi in coffee shops. Things to do are weirdly many. Museums, street food, night markets, and quick trips to volcanoes or beaches a few hours away. Most travellers enjoy the food scene and the live music in Barrio Escalante. Community is real. There are meetups, language exchanges, and nomads in parks. I once worked from a rooftop cafe and ended up in a group planning a surf weekend. San José is raw, social, and useful for getting work done.
