Dear MDN;
Thank you for your undertaking. I am looking forward to reading about each and every location that you will cover.
I have lived full time in Puerto Vallarta for 26 years. I would like to share your review of places to live in Mexico other than Puerto Vallarta with friends in the USA. It seems that I can’t forward articles without them having a subscription to MDN. Is there a way around this so that they can read your review without a subscription?
Sincerely,
Gardner

I hope you address the levels of water scarcity in the various locales. The tourist publications and real estate offices like to gloss that over, but I hope your paper doesn’t.

Capital Idea Travis! Thank you Greg!
I have been living part time in the Lake Chapala area for the past 3 years on a resident visa, in the summers. I have grown very fond of the country and it’s people. I also love living in Lakeside, with it’s engaging & active population of expats and locals. I am learning Spanish, and it’s not easy as an older retiree. I hope to travel all over Mexico and understand it at a deeper level. Your stories should help me better understand the country through the expat lens. Thank you!

Hi, your comment caught my eye. 3 yrs ago when I first got my house in Guadalajara I flew numerous places within Mexico. Booked ahead I never paid more than $100. I remember paying $75 return from Guadalajara to Cancun. Over a 2 hour flight.
The Guadalajara airport has 4 airlines flying non stop to Los Angeles. Airport would be my top requirement on this list. Second would be open roads for car and motorcycle rides which I also get in the Guadalajara area
Sayulita is one of my favorite places to sit in the plaza and take in the vibe. Puerto Vallarta is a wonderful getaway destination for Guadalajara people

Apparently I missed the best places. Is that forthcoming?

This is fun. Thank you for putting this together. Not only is it interesting to read as someone who might be interested in moving to Mexico but it’s fun for someone who lives in Mexico in the winter to learn more about places to visit inside Mexico. One of the things I like about living in Mexico is how inexpensive it is to travel by air to other places inside Mexico. Too bad gasoline prices are now so high. I’m looking forward to learning more about places I have not been but plan to visit.

There could be one more category. Vibe. And a degree of Vibe. It’s an energy level. Sayulita has a lot of the Vibe. The energy from the surf community draws people to this town. Unfortunately people are arriving faster than the infrastructure can keep up with plus its driving up cost. Mexico City has the Vibe. You don’t have to be young to have a high young bohemian vibration level but you can feel it in a community.
