Once you hit DAC your electricity bill can be from 7000-11,000 pesos for 2 months. Solar panels are a must unless you enjoy mold around your home or apartment. Just use the dry mode and save 50% on your power bills. Cancun and Playa are very expensive for a 3rd world towns. An average hotel is $300 a night while a 5 star all inclusive hotel will be $700-1000 USD a night.
A and if I run my air it cost me $300 or more a month I live in playa. Water cost me $50 a month. Rent for a house that is in need of renovations cost me $700 a month so if your on a fixed income of $2,000 a month is almost imposible especially if you have kids. Its very expensive to live in playa. Food andas is very high. Gas is over $5,00 a gallon. So it is very expensive. Jobs only pay $20 for a 12 hour day. So you have to be honest. Wages aredangerously low. Lower Then poverty le el
To be real and honest a $2000 fixed income with kids is low anywhere. If in the US or Canada that may not even cover rent. Yes if you plan on moving to Playa Del Carmen, Playa is one of the more expensive places in Mexico. With modern amenities etc. If your on a $2000 fixed income we would suggest you look at more of the surrounding areas that may not have the city prices. Also most aren't looking to relocate to Mexico to work in Mexico, because you will get a Mexico wage.
What other questions can we answer?
You guys should try Thailand or Vietnam, much cheaper, much better food and no issues with safety unlike in Mexico.
It's on my list of places to go to check out. Thanks!

I remember being in Tulum in 2011 when it was for backpackers and hippies.. now its super expensive, hipsters and yuppies.
Yeah things change over the years, You can still find your backpackers and hippies
What do you do for living? Is wifi very reliable?
I work online full time and wifi has been reliable. Except when the power goes out. Which could be once every few months.
Great Information, thank you!
