Poopó
8.3
Mid score (6-8)
Poopó municipality sits at 3,640m around a lake that's suffered environmental collapse—the water level crashed in the 2010s, leaving a harsh landscape. The town survives on fishing remnants and herding, with basic lodging available if you're passing through. It's genuinely Andean and honest about its struggles, but services are minimal.
