This sounds like the perfect place to live. As for us the lack of Walmart, malls and big commercial businesses sounds like paradise. I love the fact that Mexico is not a nanny state, watch where your walking and be responsible for yourself.
Thanks Jerry you are changing the perception of Americans have about Mexico I went to Ajijic 12 years ago and the weather is awesome, and if you drive to Guadalajara on weekends you’ll find all the chains restaurants and the shopping yo want to. Thank you again you are helping to boost the economy of real estates in Mexico.
But at the same time it's costing a bunch by having all the old Americans and non-nationals taking medical resources that the poorest in Mexico pay for. I do not agree with that. They all want to live on 300 dollars a month.???? how does that help Mexico in any way??? Their medical care cost more than what they bring to the economy.

+Orion Star True and Expates suck up land, housing, food, utilities and water resources pushing locals out. Pay them generously and give big tips. Parasitic if you don't give back more than you take. What do Jerry and his wife get out of all this promotion?
So far you are giving me all the reasons to go there...I love what you are saying. I'm looking for that...one season, spring, no huge hotels, not malls, not credit cards, no lights at night...sounds like paradise
We live a very simple life here in the US, but that is very hard to do in our culture. Neither my husband or I have ever felt like we fit in. We have been to several places in Mexico, and have always felt welcome and safe. We are both retired and this sounds like heaven to us. Thank You for this video.
Jerry's doing a good job of keeping mass tourism, keeping spring breakers, keeping droves of US short stayers from flocking to Chapala, preventing over crowding if our lovely little best kept secret
You older folks just don't want any younger tourist in town, but if you're younger and watching this, there's a town next to this one called Jocotepec they have big festivals on late January, music women, alcohol you name it. I highly recommend

Thank you for the reminder of how lucky and blessed we all are to have her with us and to you for finding her and loving her. Please give her a really big hug from her sister in light
Thanks Jerry for this video of the cons of moving to Ajijic. It’s important to note that there are people who come down here and are disappointed because they only heard the pros and did not consider the cons when making their decision.
Jerry Brown Travels Thanks. Was talking to my daughter and one of her friends at the Hospital travels to different countries and uses "Hostel" I've never heard of that before but looks like she's having fun while working..
If you are living on a retirement from a career here in the states then it will still be taxed. There are still a lot of good reasons to move there though!

I have been enjoying your videos so very much! I had to take a minute to tell you to keep them coming! You guys are the cutest couple ever & i just love your style 😊 Lake Chapala seems to be such a dreamy place & like another of your friends just commented ‘this list of reasons NOT to want to visit this area happen to contain a lot of the exact reasons we would absolutely love it there’. Well perhaps some would take a bit of getting use to but all in all Mexico has never disappointed us in our travels. You can bet that Ajijic is on our radar for visit real soon! Fingers crossed we get to see you & Lori when we do. I would so love to meet you wacky kids in person! Love you both & thanks for brightening my days with your videos. 😘🙋✌️
Who on earth wants to go to a big hotel in Mexico??? And whoopee - they deal in Pesos!! And you will have to do CALCULATIONS ;) And - eternal spring - instead of snow and beaches. And no big box stores. It sounds jolly WONDERFUL!!
All videos I’ve seen they clearly say, this is for retirement , if your looking for a quite and peacefull place ajijic is for you, if your looking drug, accion , prostitution, and shootings at schools and churches, then go back to USA to find the right place, is a shame, but the truth.

You guys are so cute! I hope you don’t mind, but I’m beginning to think of you like adopted grandparents. Even though you’re not old enough for that! It’s just because Lori’s personality reminds me so much of my dear Gram that I told you about when I first got to know you. I guess you make me feel like a kid again! You’re very endearing & I know so many people love you like I do, even though we’ve never met :) Thanks for the fun video!
My family is from and lives in Chapala, & Ajijic Jalisco. I’m proud of where my roots come from. They are one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to so don’t listen to the negativity!! These two places are the best!🤗 MI QUERIDO CHAPALA!!!!!!
Hi Jerry and Lori, thanks for the useful information on the No’s in Lake Chapala as my wife likes 4* restaurants and spending my money 💰 at the Malls, I will still be making my way there👍.
John #4 restaurant has closed their doors they are no longer in business.( That may save you some money ha ha Ha ) But the malls are still there in Guadalajara. Let us know when you're down here so we can get together.
Your money n married? I'm shocked some one married your ass! If your married its shared everything. Even if one takes care of the basic house. That's work! Both your money. If she's obsessed with spending get some marriage counseling. Maybe underlying. Health troubles
Almost All of those reasons is exactly why I'd like to have live there LOL I don't shop at malls have not for years even the big Walmart's I cannot stand there it's TOO much walking for me there too gigantic...I don't eat fast food cuz it makes me literally ill Etc only might have a bit of problems with the money conversion but I'm sure I could catch on all of those reasons is why I would like to live there no snow Spring weather year round no hot sweltering Heat or humidity it would be so kind to my condition.. but do they have any heated pools? I've asked y'all a few times it doesn't have to be in a hotel I'm just wondering do they have any kind of heated pools? You know for doing stretching exercising swimming whatever thank you in advance again another awesome video
there's a hotel on the highway closer to Chapala town called Monte Carlo with a heated pool & jacuzzi. available to the public for a fee. I've forgotten the cost but if you use it at least 3x a week it's cheaper to pay a monthly fee.
Lol I’m from Guadalajara, and still remember the first time my parents took me there when I was about 7 , & I realized that all the signs were in English !! 😂😂😂 & I was so confused lol & my mother explained to me that this was a tourist destination, you guys seem to be having so much fun !.
It was great to see you in person at the Lake Chapala society in september 2019 . We were at Earl and Johns seminar about living in Lake Chapala. I really love this town and it was a pleasure to meet you in person. Randy Oakley California.
Hi Kelly thank you for your comment and thank you for subscribing to our RUclips channel Lori and I appreciate that very much. You receive one free video week. Here's the video you may like ruclips.net/video/y5k56UAW1yY/видео.html
Most of those reasons would be reasons for me to GO, not stay away. Anyway, I left the USA 13 years ago and retired in northern Thailand which was the best decision I ever made. I certainly wouldn't go back and change it to Mexico, especially after marrying the most adorable little Thai woman ever. The thought of having to go back to states isn't much different than the thought of having to jump into a pit of cobras, for sure. Love Thailand absolutely, 13 years of bliss.
Sounds like my kind of place! I'm younger (31 years old) but am quite a bit older at heart. Literally everything you said makes me want to visit that much more. My fiancee and I are thinking about moving there ourselves or buying property and having long consistent visits within the next 5-ish years. I love these videos so much! Hope all is well. Cheers from Chicago!!!!

Roberto García Roberto García I appreciate your interest , but I do speak both language too, I thought there’s people outhere who doesn’t understand a word about this video, and to be honest is really informative .thank again!
Do most of the Americans living there speak Spanish? I have the impression that they do not and that this place is kind of an American area where the Americans more or less stay together and do not become part of the local Mexican community.
I would say in majority of the ex-pats, foreigners do not speak Spanish but the ex-pats are very much involved in the community volunteering at orphanages, raising money for the Mexican community, for providing food, medical, Computer technology to the local Mexican community. That's one of the nice things about living here that we are part of the community and the Mexican people appreciate what we due to help them. Thank you for your comment. J&L
Clarence Hammer, who cares? If you get out a bit further, you can find the México you are lookin' fo'. Besides, why are we assuming that these Yanks (and Sons & Daughters of Condederates, to be fair) are failing to learn or try to learn? Eh?
I was determined to retire to Mexico - until my family discovered we would only be allowed to bring in one computer. Sounds crazy. Do you know anything about this?
But at the same time it's costing a bunch by having all the old Americans and non-nationals taking medical resources that the poorest in Mexico pay for. I do not agree with that. They all want to live on 300 dollars a month.???? how does that help Mexico in any way??? Their medical care cost more than what they bring to the economy.
Americans and Canadians living there should unite and persuede town authorities to clean dog waste; chances are that all of you unite have the power to persuade authorities.
My perception from the videos is that the people are the authority but in a cooperative style. I would just make a fun day with the kids, call it "poop day" and have fun cleaning. I bet the locals would throw a few tips/surprises to encourage it. Also, maybe have poop zones filled with sand or loose dirt. Whatever you do, DON'T call in the authority. They like rules/laws/fines etc. You guys seem to like cooperation, civil interactions and community-based living.

That was fun! Could you tell us about the lake, Jerry? It seems that nobody swims in it. I think it would drive me crazy to have that beautiful lake nearby, but nowhere to swim.
Foreigners choose not to swim in the lake it's not very clear and the water is very cold. The local kids swim in the lake but for the foreigners, it's not very appealing.

Ajijic loves to dance. Right now we are taking it very seriously about being around people who have not been vaccinated or not wear a mask. We are not doing any dancing even so we love to dance. You'll find a lot of people that don't have that mine said that we do and you'll find a lot of people that are at the dance restaurants and bars. I hope you enjoy your stay here. Thank you for your comment Lori and I appreciate that very much.
No Mcdonals, Burger king, big store chain, no 4 star hotel. This is the perfect place for me.
With all of those negatives you have really made me realize that I do want to come there. :-) It's PERFECT!!!
This sounds like the perfect place to live. As for us the lack of Walmart, malls and big commercial businesses sounds like paradise. I love the fact that Mexico is not a nanny state, watch where your walking and be responsible for yourself.
So, in short, all the reason cited above ARE the reasons why I would like to move over there
Keep doing what you do it's appreciated by all
Thanks Jerry you are changing the perception of Americans have about Mexico I went to Ajijic 12 years ago and the weather is awesome, and if you drive to Guadalajara on weekends you’ll find all the chains restaurants and the shopping yo want to.

Dang, how do I move there? I'm ready and tired of living here in the states and being taxed to death.
best to rent small place first, check it out , do your research, and see if this is where you belong.

If you are looking for exotic diseases, prostitutes with AIDS, cheapest drugs, most corrupt police and drug cartels who will cut off your head with a chainsaw and even shoot your children then come to Mexico!
right because Mexico is a drug cartel-less utopia! You sir are delusional.
Why do you have locked Gates and walls around all your houses in all these communities?
Comparing Mexico at it's very best to the USA at it's very worst is very deceitful. It's the logical fallacy called a false dichotomy.

You guys are so cute! I hope you don’t mind, but I’m beginning to think of you like adopted grandparents. Even though you’re not old enough for that! It’s just because Lori’s personality reminds me so much of my dear Gram that I told you about when I first got to know you. I guess you make me feel like a kid again! You’re very endearing & I know so many people love you like I do, even though we’ve never met :) Thanks for the fun video!
Sorry, Rick- didn’t mean to bother you by attaching that to your comment! Duh!
Thank you Rick you're the greatest.
Sunny if you ever get down to are part of the world please, please let us know you want to get together with you. Okay
Rick Daystar
I know right 😂
My family is from and lives in Chapala, & Ajijic Jalisco. I’m proud of where my roots come from. They are one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to so don’t listen to the negativity!! These two places are the best!🤗 MI QUERIDO CHAPALA!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing
I guess when this video were made Wal-Mart was not there yet because I went to Wal-Mart last week when I was in Ajijic.
Wal -Mart has been there like since forever.
And a Costco in Guadalajara and a 7-11
Thank you so much for the video. You listed all the reasons I WANT to move there. Your video is a bit slight on several topics. It's cool.
Hi Jerry and Lori, thanks for the useful information on the No’s in Lake Chapala as my wife likes 4* restaurants and spending my money 💰 at the Malls, I will still be making my way there👍.
John #4 restaurant has closed their doors they are no longer in business.( That may save you some money ha ha Ha )
But the malls are still there in Guadalajara.
Let us know when you're down here so we can get together.
Your money n married? I'm shocked some one married your ass! If your married its shared everything. Even if one takes care of the basic house. That's work! Both your money. If she's obsessed with spending get some marriage counseling. Maybe underlying. Health troubles
Nice ! very unique presentation !
Is it safe in Mexico ruclips.net/video/2iyQYsPka9A/видео.html
Almost All of those reasons is exactly why I'd like to have live there LOL I don't shop at malls have not for years even the big Walmart's I cannot stand there it's TOO much walking for me there too gigantic...I don't eat fast food cuz it makes me literally ill Etc only might have a bit of problems with the money conversion but I'm sure I could catch on all of those reasons is why I would like to live there no snow Spring weather year round no hot sweltering Heat or humidity it would be so kind to my condition.. but do they have any heated pools? I've asked y'all a few times it doesn't have to be in a hotel I'm just wondering do they have any kind of heated pools? You know for doing stretching exercising swimming whatever thank you in advance again another awesome video
ssue4q Great question. I was wondering about that, maybe a spa of sorts, nothing fancy just functional.. Lol
there's a hotel on the highway closer to Chapala town called Monte Carlo with a heated pool & jacuzzi. available to the public for a fee. I've forgotten the cost but if you use it at least 3x a week it's cheaper to pay a monthly fee.
there's also an indoor pool in San Antonio, the town next to Chapala. I've seen it from the highway but have never been there.
Evalina M thank you for the info
Evalina M wow thank you guys so much for the information cuz in my world a heated pool is very important really really appreciate it awesome
Where / how do you get groceries? where do you go shopping ? Is there a bus to Guadalajara and how often? medical assistance?
Lol I’m from Guadalajara, and still remember the first time my parents took me there when I was about 7 , & I realized that all the signs were in English !! 😂😂😂 & I was so confused lol & my mother explained to me that this was a tourist destination, you guys seem to be having so much fun !.
Thank you for your comment we appreciate you very much
You guys are adorable. Is great to see people from the U.S. loving Mexico so much.
Thank You

It was great to see you in person at the Lake Chapala society in september 2019 . We were at Earl and Johns seminar about living in Lake Chapala. I really love this town and it was a pleasure to meet you in person. Randy Oakley California.
Yes, I remember meeting you at Lake Chapala society. Let's get together next time you're here.
Thank you for your comment.

I fell in love with Ajijic/Lake Chapala some years ago while visiting for one month doing a missionary assignment.

Most of those reasons would be reasons for me to GO, not stay away. Anyway, I left the USA 13 years ago and retired in northern Thailand which was the best decision I ever made. I certainly wouldn't go back and change it to Mexico, especially after marrying the most adorable little Thai woman ever. The thought of having to go back to states isn't much different than the thought of having to jump into a pit of cobras, for sure. Love Thailand absolutely, 13 years of bliss.
Sounds like my kind of place! I'm younger (31 years old) but am quite a bit older at heart. Literally everything you said makes me want to visit that much more. My fiancee and I are thinking about moving there ourselves or buying property and having long consistent visits within the next 5-ish years. I love these videos so much! Hope all is well.
Cheers from Chicago!!!!

Hi Jerry I just watched your dental video with Dr Candy, I will be contacting her soon, I was wondering if there are any good Chiropractors around Lake Chapala, would be awesome to see you interview a Chiropractor, thank you to you and Lori for all your work.
Dr. Candy is great and Laurie and I both had used her.
Great suggestion let me put it on the list.

You should try to translate this video in spanish is really informative, I’m pretty sure alot of people would like to hear this and their language.
Thank you and a good suggestion

I can help you translate, I'm fluent in english and spanish as well
Roberto García Roberto García I appreciate your interest , but I do speak both language too, I thought there’s people outhere who doesn’t understand a word about this video, and to be honest is really informative .thank again!
Such cozy and beautiful town.
Do most of the Americans living there speak Spanish? I have the impression that they do not and that this place is kind of an American area where the Americans more or less stay together and do not become part of the local Mexican community.
I would say in majority of the ex-pats, foreigners do not speak Spanish but the ex-pats are very much involved in the community volunteering at orphanages, raising money for the Mexican community, for providing food, medical, Computer technology to the local Mexican community. That's one of the nice things about living here that we are part of the community and the Mexican people appreciate what we due to help them. Thank you for your comment.
J&L
Clarence Hammer, who cares? If you get out a bit further, you can find the México you are lookin' fo'. Besides, why are we assuming that these Yanks (and Sons & Daughters of Condederates, to be fair) are failing to learn or try to learn? Eh?
I was determined to retire to Mexico - until my family discovered we would only be allowed to bring in one computer. Sounds crazy. Do you know anything about this?
No, Ii have no idea but that does sound strange. Maybe after you get to Mexico you might be able to purchase more computers. I really have no idea.
But at the same time it's costing a bunch by having all the old Americans and non-nationals taking medical resources that the poorest in Mexico pay for. I do not agree with that. They all want to live on 300 dollars a month.???? how does that help Mexico in any way??? Their medical care cost more than what they bring to the economy.
My friends John and Barb moved there from Colorado Springs years ago and love it!
Americans and Canadians living there should unite and persuede town authorities to clean dog waste; chances are that all of you unite have the power to persuade authorities.
You make a good point
My perception from the videos is that the people are the authority but in a cooperative style. I would just make a fun day with the kids, call it "poop day" and have fun cleaning. I bet the locals would throw a few tips/surprises to encourage it. Also, maybe have poop zones filled with sand or loose dirt. Whatever you do, DON'T call in the authority. They like rules/laws/fines etc. You guys seem to like cooperation, civil interactions and community-based living.
History, culture, nature good weather, the opportunity to practice my rusty Spanish. Sounds like a great place to live or visit. :)

That was fun! Could you tell us about the lake, Jerry? It seems that nobody swims in it. I think it would drive me crazy to have that beautiful lake nearby, but nowhere to swim.
Foreigners choose not to swim in the lake it's not very clear and the water is very cold. The local kids swim in the lake but for the foreigners, it's not very appealing. Mayflower You have to do your swimming in a swimming pool

Happy happy 2018
planning a visit over Easter weekend to ajijic. you mentioned dancing. will anything be open there over Easter weekend? and where do you dance
Ajijic loves to dance. Right now we are taking it very seriously about being around people who have not been vaccinated or not wear a mask. We are not doing any dancing even so we love to dance. You'll find a lot of people that don't have that mine said that we do and you'll find a lot of people that are at the dance restaurants and bars. I hope you enjoy your stay here. Thank you for your comment Lori and I appreciate that very much.
