It is shocking to me that people are so afraid of Mexico.
I can understand being afraid of using the restrooms in certain areas due to sanitation issues.
There are plenty of scary places in America.
A bit of situational awareness with common sense goes a long way where ever you are.
This is just so hard! I am always dreaming of this and so pulled in many directions. I've been to some places I'd like to think I'd like to live and some I have not. I watch a lot of Youtubers who are doing this and one of my fave you should check out is Tangerine Travelers, they get around there!
My problem is my husband has a home there in his hometown(Michoacan) and I love his town and all but it is so rural! I feel I don't enjoy myself as much of what I enjoy there but the allure of not having to worry financially this home is owned and beautiful and his area is very cheap of utilities and food. No tourism whatsoeever!
Where I have been and can see myself living there:
Mazatlan
Leon
Aguascalientes-I love it there!And my Grandma is from there and still has family there
Guadalajara
Tijuana, Ensanada, still love these parts!
Where I haven't been but think I'd love:
Puerto Escondido
Merida
Hualtuco
Mexico City!!! I wish...
Puebla
We've met so many people here (GDL) that have lived in Merida and moved because they got sick of the heat.
By all accounts Merida is a nice safe city with friendly locals and lots to do, but with so much of Mexico having weather where it's comfortable to be outside almost the entire year they just got tired of it and chased the higher altitudes.
