Groceries run $5-8/day per person. Overall 50-70% below US major cities — a comfortable life runs $1,200-2,000/mo including rent.
Key Fact
Mexico has no path from tourist status to residency inside the country — you must apply at a Mexican consulate in the US. Healthcare is excellent and affordable (private insurance ~$100/mo), but bureaucracy moves slowly.
Life in Mexico
Taco stands on every corner, rooftop mezcal at sunset, a rhythm of life where lunch is the main event and the street markets overflow with colors you forgot existed.
