About Pedro Juan Caballero
Pedro Juan Caballero is the capital of the Amambay Department, with 127,437 inhabitants (2022 Census), located approximately 460 km north of Asunción along Route 5 (Road of Sovereignty). It is a border city with Brazil in its most characteristic feature: it forms a continuous conurbation with Ponta Porã (Brazil), where the dividing line between the two countries is in many stretches simply an avenue — Paraguay's most emblematic "dry border" — with over 200,000 combined inhabitants in the cross-border metropolitan area. Border trade is the city's economic engine: shops, importers, electronics, clothing, and duty-free products attract buyers from both sides. Agricultural and livestock production from the Amambay Department — one of Paraguay's leading soybean and cattle-ranching departments — provides a complementary economic base. The real estate offer is mid-profile, with family homes, large lots, and agricultural properties on the outskirts, at some of the lowest prices in the country. For the international investor, Pedro Juan Caballero offers access to international trade dynamics, a low cost of living, and a real estate market at a strong discount compared to Greater Asunción.
