I am looking forward to this series of articles. I have been living in MX 6 months of the year, primarily in touristy coastal areas, 80% of the time on the Pacific coast. Our family farming enterprise is in the Midwest and the Pacific coast seems to be the area where I can get the most direct flights. However, the more time spent in MX, the less I want to be surrounded by US tourists. I love exploring and learning the history and culture of MX, and enjoy volunteering with marine animal welfare organizations. I plan to live full time in MX after I fully retire and exactly where has just now started to be a top of mind. I wish I were more of a free spirit and able to wander the Country every 6 or 12 months, but for me, a permanent address is important. I have a 8-10 locations that I have been investigating and I can’t wait to see how your assessment of different locations aligns with my own.

Guadalajara has 2 Costcos for 5 million people. The line to pay wraps around the store within 15 minutes of opening. So for you types into that sort of thing part of this article could be how Mexico is underserved.

God made a beautiful world. Mexico might be a part of our life’s journey but certainly not something to be taken overly serious as to which place here is better than others.

Coyoacan! Love this area. My wife and I always stay there when visiting Mexico City. Now retired, we have a home on the Pacific coast of Mexico away from better known cities frequented by expats and tourists. I’ll be curious to see if it gets a mention.

We live in Chapala (Ajijic adjacent). Didn’t want coast locations because of the heat and humidity in the summer. Surrounded by 25k US/Canadian/others, we are fortunate, since neither of us speak fluent Spanish (and I know we should) and the Mexicanos want to learn English. 45-60 minutes to Guadalajara and Costco, and just the right altitude (Pueblo and CDMX caused me problems). We are very happy here and with the many friends we have made, most likely it would take al ot to get us to move. But I am looking forward to the series.

I have been in Mazatlan near Centro for better part of 2 years (on and off, I have to attend to business in the UN-united states). I love many parts of Mazatlan, but the layout of the city and infrastructure problems are a bit much and I don’t know the city can continue to grow. if you know it, you know what I mean. The sewage into the ocean (happens elsewhere too) is concerning, the inability to sustain growth and lack of roads and the city flooding with the “agua negra” are pushing me towards a pueblo. I considered the mountains east of here, but without fluent spanish? forget it. I would be a basket case, however I would step up my speed in learning spanish. Many won’t consider the mountains becaue of “the boys” of Sinaloa which are absolutely present. This does not trouble me coming from the USA which has turned into a violence shit-show that tolerates constant shootings and children dying in school yards. However, i would think unless you have a Mexicana spouse or strong ties, one could be easily taken advantage of. Espanol es primero!!! Mazatlan is absolutely (for me) better than PV or the typical gringo holes – if you want to better learn more Mexico culture. This is where Mexicanos come to vacation and I love that.

We have two Costcos in Guadalajara. Usually when we go we are among but a handful of expats, the rest are Mexicans. Go see for yourself, Mexicans love Costco. So de we, it is a little taste of home.
