Moving to Mexico: The Surprising Truth About Cost of Living

If you’ve ever dreamed of a lifestyle filled with vibrant culture, delicious cuisine, warm weather, and financial freedom, you might want to consider Mexico.

I made the move myself, and let me tell you, it’s not just about escaping the hustle. It’s about living well without breaking the bank.

What Does It Really Cost to Live in Mexico?

Compared to the U.S., the cost of living in many parts of Mexico is significantly lower. From groceries and medical care to housing and entertainment, your dollar stretches further here.

• Housing: A modern home or apartment in San Miguel de Allende (where I now live) can be found at a fraction of what you’d pay in Palm Beach County. Whether you rent or buy, there’s something for nearly every budget.

• Healthcare: Mexico has both public and private options, and both are affordable. For many, medical insurance and out-of-pocket costs are surprisingly low, even for high-quality care.

• Dining & Groceries: Whether you’re shopping at local markets or dining at restaurants, the prices, and flavors are hard to beat.

• Lifestyle: Want a housekeeper or weekly massage? In many areas, these once-luxury services are easily affordable.

But It’s Not Just About Cost…

Living in Mexico offers something even more valuable, quality of life. The community, the slower pace, the artistry, and the sense of freedom make every day feel like a breath of fresh air.

If you’re considering a lifestyle shift or eyeing retirement, Mexico isn’t just a budget decision—it’s a heart decision. And I’m here to help you make it.
