I also decided I’d buy my huge house in Selva Alegre :) .

Never been to Alto Selva Alegre, Miraflores or more east than the San Augustín stadium though.

Arequipa is not at all a bad place to live, I like the weather a lot, and if you don’t live next to a major road the air is better than in Lima. If I had the cash I’d switch between Lima and Arequipa with the seasons I think. That’s if I didn’t choose Piura instead, which is also excellent in every way.
