I’ve been thinking about going to Mexico for years. I am learning Spanish. I live and work in California. I have visited Mexico a couple times and really loved it. I lived in Spain one year. I don’t use star bucks or mcdonnalds. I don’t really like chain franchises too much. I prefer more authentic shops. Mom & pop places. I want to visit Mexico again and get a feel for what it would be like to live there.

I am moving to Queretaro in 3 weeks. I have been planning this for 5 years and have spent a great deal of time researching where, in Mexico, I would land. I got my residencia temporal a couple of weeks ago, and it was quite easy. I am Mexican American by heritage, so it will not be a big cultural shock. I spent my childhood summers in Vallarta, and my teen vacation years in CDMX and Guadalajara. I am not happy in the US for a number of reasons, and I am quite sure that my retirement years will be well spent in Queretaro.

Amazing work. We just purchased a Lote to build in Autlan Jalisco. Not too far from Chapala. Saludos 🤙🏽

Update : Texas has no income tax , and we just got a 41% reduction in property tax . And we are paying $ 2.39 / gal for gasoline . Texas is enjoying a tremendous budget surplus while Californians are subject to dramatic tax consequences both present and future in order to help pay for their unheard of budget deficit brought on by the left socialist govt. I still have dreams of going to Mexico . Thank you for your vids and keep em coming . Que Dios lo bendiga ! !

Can you please share on a video what the utilities run you. get watering plus the garbage picked up.

I want to visit soon. I am tired of the insane cost of rent in the USA. (Especially California. Like $2100 a month for a crummy studio apartment with no space). Or a room in someone’s house for $900 or more. It’s become and unreasonably greedy nightmare here. So many are leaving. I’d really like to visit Mexico and see what it’s really like plus, I’m very sociable. I’ve been working on my Spanish for years now. I’d love to be fluent.

Good video Vic 👍👍.

Excelente video amigo, gracias. Thank you Holy Spirit and Thank you YESHUA. 🙏

Hola hermano good video Dios te cuide

Hi Vic Harry from Canada. The interest rate truly does fluctuate every 5 years if that's what your mortgage is at or if you have a 2 year mortgage then your interest rate can change. Can't wait to get to Mexico from Canada selling my place. Take a look at us Mountain Creek Ranch Bancroft Ontario Canada

I just read that the average Social Security monthly payment is now 1700.00. It also seems that that data doesn't show the rent in the Lake chapala area which is more like 700.00 to 2200.00 per month for a 2 bedroom place.

I'm from michoacan like everywhere good places and bad my town is near lake chapala in michoacan side

Thank you for comparing prices. I have wondered what my cost would be when I make the move to Mexico. I live in Az and can tell you for certain that my electrical bill is much much higher than what you have on your list, especially in the summer time.

The Mexican Dream is the yearning of every Mexican immigrant, to return to the mother nation to be close to the cousins, the abuelos and the crazy tias.

How about jobs that will sustain you.
