When you’re making the decision of where to buy your property, there are many factors to think about. The first to consider would be the location: do I want to live on the beach, in the mountains, the city? And if so, I would prefer a tower apartment, a house in a condo, etc…
If living in the mountains is the option that most catches your attention, the reasons to follow will end up convincing you.
Less Pollution
When living in the mountains we can find lower levels of pollution. This ranges from air pollution to sonic pollution.
This is directly due to the relief of the earth and the winds that disperse the pollutants. This depends on the rigor of the terrain, but above all it consists of the constant creation of obstacles for the wind that comes from the valley towards the mountain (which is the one that brings the pollution). There’s specific benefits when talking about ‘mountain air’ too.
Sonic pollution is that which comes from sound. Like the engine of cars, passing trucks, alarms, whistles, and so on. When living in the mountains these are two that can be forgotten. Since the air that is breathed is much more clean and the only constant sound is that of the wind through the trees.
From tranquility and natural beauty to fresh air and quality of life, mountain living provides a rejuvenating escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. In addition, the demand for properties in the mountains continues to increase, which makes this investment an attractive and safe option in the real estate market. Whether as a primary residence, second home or long-term investment, mountain properties offer a unique lifestyle and potential value growth over time.

Lifestyle and much more!
Lifestyle and much more!
Mountain properties tend to be more spacious, this is due to the market that the area has and the supply and demand. This space can be used in many ways; you can start your own garden, reforest, put a water source, a playground for children, and much more.
Living in the mountains brings with it more variety of hobbies to undertake: hiking, bird watching, photography, mountain bike, canopy, camping, among others. And it doesn’t necessarily have to be a hobby, because you can also read a book under a tree, go for a walk to collect garbage from the forest, meditate…
Another opportunity offered by life in the mountains is to adopt local shopping habits. This in turn can be beneficial to your diet. Since it is more accessible to buy directly from farmers in the area, plus it is cheaper than large supermarket chains.
With all the local farms, the local produce market expands because living in the mountains is simply more!
Health Benefits
In 2019, a study was published in the journal Frontiers of Psychology, which indicates that with just 20 minutes of entering to walk in the mountain, cortisol levels drop. This is how the term “nature’s pill” was born. The most natural method to reduce stress. This is why living in the mountains leads such a relaxing lifestyle.
