> Locals in ... all over South America... are pissed with these "digital nomads" (read: illegal immigrants)
Brazilian here. At least on the part of South America that I know that well (a little more than my country), nobody gives a shit.

Anyway, I'm not sure rent is high on those place (or rater specifically Mexico City) because of immigration. I can't imagine deciding to move to Mexico and picking specifically Mexico City instead of somewhere else (it would be like deciding to go to Brazil and insisting on living in São Paulo - people have many reasons for living there, remote working immigrants have almost none). At the same time, there are plenty of reasons to have expensive rents there that don't depend on immigrants.
