Where digital nomads live in Bogotá (and why they all end up in the north)
In recent years, Bogotá has transformed from a city of transit to a home for a new type of traveler: the digital nomad. Creatives, entrepreneurs, freelancers, and remote professionals from around the world are choosing it as a base for a balanced life and work.
But not all places are created equal. Some neighborhoods captivate you from the first visit. Others offer real comfort, connectivity, and spaces that make everyday life easier. In this guide, we explore where digital nomads live in Bogotá and what makes many end up choosing the north as their favorite spot.
Bogotá: a city in transformation
The Colombian capital is changing. With more green spaces, better services, and a growing gastronomic and cultural scene, living in Bogotá today is very different from what it was five years ago. The cool climate, diverse options, and strategic location within the continent make it attractive for those who work remotely and are looking for more than just connectivity.
The favorite areas of digital nomads in Bogotá
Chapinero: culture, community and urban rhythm
A neighborhood with soul. Independent cafes, galleries, bars with personality, and coworking spaces that function as creative hubs. Chapinero is diverse, accessible, and vibrant. Perfect for those who appreciate the mix of local and international.
Usaquén: tranquility and sophistication
Cobblestone streets, signature restaurants, green spaces, and artisan markets. Usaquén offers the balance many seek: tranquility without isolation. An area for those who want to enjoy Bogotá calmly, yet without being far from the action.
93rd Street Park and North Business District
For those who come for work and seek comfort, connectivity, and premium services, the north is the epicenter. Business centers, restaurants, green spaces, bike paths, gyms, and hotels with soul. Much of the corporate and long-term business activity is concentrated here.
What a digital nomad looks for in their daily life
- A space of your own, furnished, functional and with good natural light.
- Fast Wi-Fi and common areas that inspire productivity.
- Proximity to places to eat well, exercise, and unwind.
- Security, good access and community.
In short: a place where it feels good to work, live, and relax. A place that doesn't feel temporary, even if it is.
Why so many end up in the north of the city
Because it has it all. It's close to business centers like Teleport and Hacienda Santa Bárbara, but also to cafes, restaurants, parks, and health centers. Transportation routes are easy, and the sense of order and calm makes all the difference.
Those who choose northern Bogotá aren't just looking for a bed or a postal address: they're looking for a space that adapts to their rhythm.
