Old San Juan's architecture is lovely. Although it's as pricey as a US mainland city, the food is good and the coffee is excellent. Locals can vary in friendliness quite a bit -- although being brusque with someone from the US mainland is entirely understandable. Uber works perfectly well. The museums have very inexpensive admissions fees. All in all, a good destination for a shorter (3 weeks or less) trip. But not a place with a digital nomad community or lots of cultural activities.

San Juan is amazing. Tons of beautiful views and restaurants everywhere. If you like Latin America, you'll like San Juan. It is more expensive than other LatAm hubs, but it has better infrastructure and is safer.There are many different vibes you can get on the island. Old San Juan is like Europe but more colorful. Condado is closer to Miami but with a better beach. There is the only rainforest in America just 20 minutes away, not to mention all the other beautiful parts of the island. I would live here even without the tax benefits.Ignore the negative comments you might see online about 'tourists' and 'gringos.' 99% of Puerto Ricans are super friendly towards outsiders.The main cons I would say is that there aren't too many restaurants here on the water. Also, don't expect the vibe on the rest of the island to be like Bali, Thailand, or Tulum. Restaurants in San Juan have a pretty good ambience but the buildings on the rest of the island are mostly just concrete boxes with bright hospital lights.
