My passport is American but my alma is Brazilian.
I've and worked in Rio and Sao Paulo.
I plan on arriving in the first quarter of 2017.
I don't want to buy property; just rent, relax and enjoy life.
My first choice city is Rio but I'm going to look at other locations.
Is the social/political climate still good an old guy?

Personally, I'd go for a smaller city rather than Rio or Sao Paulo. I can't relax and enjoy life in a big city...too many people, too much crime, I would feel lost in the crowd.
Campinas? Limeira? Porto Alegre even seemed nice. I know there are many more...
