The same date and filters apply, using the barrio named in each InfoCasas listing. We include only barrios with at least 10 listings; Barrio Obrero sits exactly at that threshold. Another 1,803 listings without an official barrio were excluded from neighborhood figures. Our neighborhood ranking adds services and travel times to this price comparison.
Electricity and transport
ANDE lists ₲365.45 per kWh for a home using 151 to 300 kWh in a month. The rate for the band reached applies to all monthly consumption; the tariff document does not clarify whether VAT is included. A metropolitan bus trip costs ₲2,300 without air conditioning or ₲3,400 with it, according to the MOPC in September 2026. Actual monthly bills depend on your use and travel.
