Copacabana isn't even one of the wealthiest in Rio. (but is probably the most famous)

In Rio, we have Ipanema, Leblon, Lagoa and perhaps Barra da Tijuca among the wealthiest here.


However, another cities in Brazil have wealthy neighborhoods like in Rio, such as Belo Horizonte and São Paulo.

There are also some places intended for summer/winter vacation which could figure in that list.

yes i wanted to put Leblon, not Copacabana...

La barra is ugly!!!!

[krudmonk]

somewhere in Montreal

[JPBrazil]

Belo Horizonte

Mangabeiras

Belvedere

Nova Lima (these are gated neighborhoods)

[Cauê]

Leblon is considered the most expensive.

Leblon - Rio de Janeiro





Leblon is the most expensive square meters of Latin America.

[Cauê]

Barra da Tijuca - Rio de Janeiro
Is beautiful but not as expensive as the Leblon :

In Mexico City it's Pedregal, Las Lomas, Huixquilucan,Santa Fe, Interlomas, etc..... and in here lives Carlos Slim who is among the 3 richest persons in the world

[Ian]

is it necesary to put so many pics????

[philadweller]

None of those areas look especially rich.

[JPBrazil]

Of course, you live in a rich country.

The concept of wealthy neighborhood in the US is diferent from Latin America.

[Mr.Burn]

still there are wealthier places in mexico city and monterrey and other cities. Those are just upper class places.

You should see the houses in san pedro garza garcia, damn!!.

That's what I thought! Where are the mansions and clasic style villas!? Although these Mexican neighbourhoods look very neat and nice!

[Mr.Burn]

just read what i said above.

I don't think so. We are deprived here of many things like healthcare. There are plenty of poor folk here, especially in the South and Appalachia. We have more variety of class. We have an incompetent government and lazy uneducated citizens that only know one language.

Houston not so rich

Houston rich

The richest parts of South America that I've seen are in Buenos Aires, Montevideo and Bogota.
