Living is not just democracy. It have a pretty high cost of life, and not so high salaries nor so much job opportunities. And if you have enough money and don't need to work (nor are worried about corruption or democracy), other countries, at least at the right cities, may give you a better experience.

Uruguay is not bad, but your mileage may vary.

In Uruguay, during the pandemic, informal jobs had another reason to fall.

Formal jobs had unemployment insurance (you still had an income even without going to work, because it was closed), for some sectors it lasted more than a year, as activity lowered it was plain suspended for the pandemic. Informal jobs didn’t had that protection. 2021 and 2022 should had big changes there. Now it could be rising again, but probably less than before the pandemic.

Causality is different for the different currencies there, some had a huge drop at the end of 2021 and then recovered at the very start of 2022, others had an steady grow over years, and there are more patterns depending on the currency. Is not so easy to reach accurate conclusion just based on that.

Water constantly and evenly rising without any other nasty effects over years/centuries is a massive oversimplification. Far more people will be at risk all through the way to that, how many people would survive in your area if just one of the days of all those years gets to, I don't know, 60ºC? Even 40-50ºC with very high humidity will do the work. And massive rains, or hurricanes or other extreme weather events. No matter how safe are you from sea rise, is the whole pack what put your life at risk.
