I have already needed a hospital and the service was faster and better than Canada. I also got treatments here for my back that are ridiculously expensive in Canada and shunned. The moronic doctors in Canada suggested I get my spine fuzzed and here I got plasmacement therapy with simple, painless injections. Now im cured. Its a myth that Canada has even a good level of health care compared to other countries.

Looks about the same as someone living where I live in Arizona. Lots of cheap land here off grid you can buy up in the white mountains at $700 an acre with low property tax. Septic install about $8000 hauled water is cheap. The south west Arizona which is lot like Baja about the same pricing only difference is water table is higher drill a well probably less then 100 feet where in the white mountains its much deeper. Most people I know don't bother with drilling water hauling would take 20-30 years to break even on the cost of drilling. South west Arizona lot hotter in the summer where white mountains get some snow but once the storm is gone it melts off also summer evaporative cooling works really well in the white mountains it's 5000 feet high humidity always low. The only upside to Arizona is I can have a firearm being in rural country on your own when it comes to security, and I understand the legal system I don't have to learn a new language.

The corruption and crime are serious problems. Crime is less a problem in the boonies but still a real problem. I live in San Diego and spend a lot of time in Mexico. I spent the weekend in Valle de Guadalupe a month ago. It was great. But murders happen often in nearby Ensenada. My friends who live in the city never leave their house unattended as things disappear when they do. But you can generally avoid serious trouble by just not getting involved in drugs. The corruption is a big problem. It's why the infrastructure is crap. It's also why I wouldn't invest money in land or a business there. Whoever has more money makes the rules.

I know it's generally possible to avoid trouble if you have nothing to do with the drug trade. The petty crime and crimes of desperation concern me a little though.

I live in San Diego, cross often, have visited all of Baja and quite a bit of mainland Mexico, and speak Spanish. I don't trust the system in Mexico. The land title system is totally broken. The squatters rights are madness. A good friend lost a very nice villa in Chamela. The authorities are quite corrupt. I've seen street cops paid off. I saw the commandante of the airport at Puerto Peñasco paid off with my own eyes. A whole lot of expats had their property in Ensenada expropriated some years ago. I don't recommend buying in Mexico.

They obviously went about it in the wrong way and didnt engage the locals to help them figure it out properly. A lot of people try to cut corners here out of greed and it backfires on them. Ignorance of the customs here is not an excuse. Mexicans are super nice but if you try to take advantage they will get you. Thats also why I love it here. Become a part of the community and contribute to their well being or beware. Ha!

@@saldebus My friend who lost the villa in Chamela was a local. Had lawyers and everything. His family had owned that place for decades. This is the place: maps.app.goo.gl/HbMAiPmpzRgrwACAA I'm a pilot and last flew into the strip visible just north of the place to hang out for a few days back in 2005. We really miss that place. You can't tell me that every one of the people who lost their homes and land in Ensenada screwed up. Foreigners are prohibited from owning land within 65 miles of the US border or 35 miles of the coastline. You may try to own it via fideicomiso but it is complicated and risky. With the fideicomiso trust that you are the beneficiary of, the bank is the owner forever. It's a 50 year lease that needs to be renewed. Will your kids know how to do that? Dying doesn't make your land/property go directly to your kids/wife; they need to be added as a trustee and also have their papers in order at that moment. It's way complicated. Just the fact that a government official can be paid off and suddenly your land is no longer your land would keep me away.

Mexico does sound appealing but no winter and snow (best time of year) and hot hot hot summers, ya not for me. There has to be places in Canada that have cheap houses? Here in Pennsylvana a friend bought a really nice brick house for like 30 grand in a small town. You do need to make some compromises for something like that he only has like a 1/4 acre no garage, it is in town, there is a big paper mill nearby that smells sometimes but not too bad especially where he is. One thing that sounds nice about mexico is the "lawlessness" easy going attitude. There are no dirt witch Karen's running around trying to fine you for not having silt sock up when you dig a hole, or game wardens hiding behind trees trying to fine people. Or am i off base with this?

Come out to North Eastern Arizona off grid is about $700 an acre build out an RV home base can travel from 5000 - 7000 feet high our winters are nothing like Canada we get snow but it melts off when the storm goes by sun is back out. Summer is hot but very dry air so evap cooling works great night cools down fast. Even when it's 105F out you won't even feel hot because it's so dry about 8% humidity. Political system is right wing but if you don't agree just stay off the topic. Local Sheriff mindset is let everyone do their thing they don't get in your business unless your a trouble maker. They don't over enforce speed laws like some rural southern states go 1 mph over they are searching everyone's cars looking for drugs or money. Speed limits are 60-75 you can go up to 10 over not busted.
