I was looking to retire in places like Ajijic, but the pace always seems a little too slow for me, I like big cities, and I think I would really like Mexico City. I'm coming out for a visit this summer, thank you so much for helping to plant the idea of Mexico city in my mind...
Hello Mr. Appel! I just spent a wonderful 5 nights in your Mexico City and had a fantastic time. You are so luck to be able to live there full time. We saw so much in our short time, like the Basilica de Guadalupe, Xochimilco, Plaza Garabaldi, Centro Historical, and of course ate some wonderful street food. Unfortunately Chapultepec Park was closed on Monday, as well as the Presidential Palace, so we'll save those for next time! All the best to you, and I hope you and your son do something special on the 4th of July, even though you're in Mexico.
Great video Don!!! I really appreciate all the important information you shared. Very well done. I have heard the air pollution is greatly improved. Is that true?
I enjoyed this video. Usually US expats are shown in the smaller towns. I just spent a month in Mexico City and being in my mid-60's I'm thinking of retiring there within the next year. Like you I prefer the big city but what is the social life like for an older person? Are there bars or cantinas that cater to the older crowd? Do you have a core group of friends and is it easy to make friends at our age there?
When I Googled how much a US citizen needs to make to move to Mexico, the answer was $2500/USD/month. Have you found this to be true? I'm 60 & on Social Security Disability; making $730/USD/month. Thank you.😁
Don, what is the best area to live in? I would like to spend my winters there. I speak English, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese and there seem to be several nationalities living there. I would love to live where I can use all three languages. I am still listening but I haven't heard the area you live in yet but I will try to find the park you are talking about.
Depends in what you are looking for, for me I prefer Mexico City. It is cosmopolitan. I like big cities and the weather is perfect, year round spring like weather. For a warm winter I recommend Oaxaca, lots of Americans, and it is inexpensive..
What are the requirements of a U.S. citizen to retire in Mexico? I know you need a source of income, but cannot find the minimum you need before they allow you to live there permanently. Is there a minimum monthly requirement, or is it based on your net worth? Thanks for making such an informative video for us soon approaching retirement age!

Dude, you can still come with that budget just 6 months at a time, with a tourist visa.
