Laying low while bragging on international TV... smoothe
we do have arseholes but, the bottom line is, he's welcome bc he PAYS. period.
Right? I was expecting like "This American wanted to stay anonymous, so we won't show their face."
International tv yes
Peggy Yacovone the guy can’t say laying low and then go jump on camera.
Lmfao
Oh the irony!!
I know XD
Yep. We need to open our eyes and not follow like sheep!
Oh, the stupidity. These expats aren't gang members, rape children or slaughter people.
solobackpacking Neither are most immigrants that immigrate to America.... (PS i'm pro legal immigration)
jacob lay its really not, clearly you know nothing about it.
They belong to that notorious MS+65 gang.

That's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time.

Mexico is a great country. It would be a pleasure to live there.

Stay with me, free everything, Zero bills. ;)
bye bye.
Only if you have money and don't have to live with mexicans. LOL
I guess the U.S. Is neater, we just randomly shoot people from high story Windows.
I was born in Mexico and will die in Mexico, thank God, for being born here in Mexico.
Imagine An illegal saying that in America. 😂😂
Turns out that your country is one of the chosen few.
Turns out that your country is one of the chosen few.
I was born in Mexico but brought to the usa when i was only child. I will retire and die en mi Mexico, to be burried along side my people, in the same country where Zapata and many others like him. Los gueros k se keden con su trump.
@@Cris-if8kf An illegal? According to the real Illegal aliens from the other side of Earth that made up the “illegal” concept. It’s 100% ironic pathetic and cowardly because these same one’s teach Disney Fairytales and half truths at best as factual USA history. Anyways, CANADA, USA, and MEXICO are ALL NORTH AMERICA.
It's not hard to get a retiree visa. You just have to demonstrate that you're financially independent (savings, pensions, social security) and that you won't need a job.
Your ssi is cut.
@@bucktooth002 Only if you work and haven't reached "full retirement age"
6 month tourist visa, then apply in Mexico for either temporary or permanent residency. Mexico loves foreigners, they help the economy. I'm retiring there in a year, yayyyy.
Exactly I have a residente permanente
These people are smart . no high prices on medical costs good prices on food nice weather. I will surely do the same
True
From the times that I've visited Mexico, I would have to say that some food prices are cheaper, some are higher. Last I checked though, gasoline was more expensive than I'm paying locally here in Texas ($2.14/gal the other day).
@@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire If you are in the more heavily tourist areas than sure but if you go to the less traveled places big difference. Gas $2.14/gal? Here in SoCal it is over $1 - $1.50 higher. I guess all those emission requirements
@ -- I think the emission requirements effect more of the cost of cars than the cost of the fuel. The cost of the fuel is affected by the increased property taxes on the fuel stations, income taxes on the fuel stations, and actual additional taxes that Kalifornia puts on fuel. The leftist government there is very good at separating you from your money.
@@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire In .CA refiners put additives into fuel in what they call a "summer blend" .thus increasing the cost. And to meet emmisions.standards that is why the price is always higher
Many Americans are ignorant about real Mexico, sure there are drug cartels in some remote areas or some regions, but there are also vibrant and prosperous cities. Mexico is a big country. Generalizing about Mexico is like saying all of US is like Detroit or the dangerous parts of Chicago.
People think that all of Mexico lives in poverty. Not true, and even the ones that do, they fricken own a house, 100% theirs, no mortgage, utilities are really cheap in Mexico... so think twice next time you think they're in poverty. Sure there are people in poverty, but poverty like some Americans imagine it's probably like 7% at most.
People migrate because really they're bored in their small towns, most Mexicans from cities don't migrate. The small 300 people towns are dead because of Nafta, but even there people can survive as the land is generous, but they're lured by the dollar exchange rate and difference in wages for non-educated citizens. The educated ones stay as it is better for them.
Sure most Mexicans won't change a car every 3 years, eat at fancy restaurants all the time, or have McMansions, but poor poor they're not.
Americans are ignorant about all countries
Americans are ignorant about america too.
SCREECH
If we generalize a group of people just like others do, are not different.
Fernando M
Same mistake as everyone else, you can never compare Mexico with The Usa, apples and oranges.
El Machete that was more of a joke then an actual statement lol
México is the historical and cultural homeland for thousands of Mexican-Americans who are U.S Citizens.
EkBalam707
You got me confused, can you elaborate more please?
Mexico is the historical and cultural homeland of most of the US Southwest.
Yup we’ve been going back and forth even before the Mexican-American war.
By population count, Los Angeles, California is the second biggest Mexican city, after CDMX. 😆 I love telling that to racist “seal the border” types.
@@MarcosElMalo2 everyone knows that. The racists usually cry "antisemitism" we don't hate them.. they hate us... envy behind their hatred attitude... ¿entiendez mendez?
This is the real reason for Trumps wall... To keep us in.
mike, ya wanna go? send me your info i will mail ya a 1-way tiket, w/t stipulation u first rescind your American citizenship.
@@pegasus514 I visit Mexico occasionally. The dangerous places are relatively small. Easy to avoid. Whatever myths people have of Mexico are purely fear-based.
mike mitchell I’ve been to Mexico 3 times during his presidency, we’re not being kept in whatsoever
Lv supervisor Power1 I’m really thankful to trump and Fox News for keeping bigots away from Mexico.
@Iowa Native Good bye and take all your friend with you. I believe some 30,000 deaths by murder in Mexico last year and TJ the deadliest city on earth. Good choice. I usually don't comment but I liked your idea so much i thought I must do so.
I used to live in Mexico and I was told by an immigration official that Americans did not need an immigrant visa to reside in Mexico for less than 180 days. The tourist card given to me on the plane was sufficient and valid for at least 90 days, or I could ask the immigration official at the port of entry to extend it to 180 days. Extending the tourist card to 180 days is completely at the discretion of the immigration official at the port of entry or at the immigration office in most major cities. Foreigners are NOT, however, allowed to work at all with only a tourist card. Doing so is officially a serious crime. Once the number of days is completed, the American must leave the country for at least 48 hours before trying to return to Mexico.
So in conclusion, living in Mexico with tourist card does not make an American an illegal in Mexico.
ESUSAMEX hhhhmmm similar to americans comming here to Canada .... except you have to go back for 24 hrs vs your 48 hrs ... other than that, its the same 180 days .
..interesting.... :)
@@Leatherkid01 I asked at the pedestrian crossing in Nuevo Laredo what the time limit was, and the official said I could return when the next shift started, and a different official would be on duty. So I hung around in Laredo for the day, crossed back to N.L. in the afternoon, and was in time for the bus going south (which I would have taken the next day). It might officially be 48 hours, but that day it was more like 6 hours.
@@MarcosElMalo2 🤣🤣🤣 sounds about right
@@MarcosElMalo2
I know some guys who literally just cross to San Diego and spend the day at the beach and shopping and then come back and get more 180 days that same day 🤷♂️
It should be illegal.
Build The Wall NOW! Make America Pay For It!
The wall around Donald Trump
Jorge Vargas not according to the US citizens. You see when you grow up in the US you are taught that the US is american even if canada and mexico make up North America.
G H for the rest of the world, América is not just the US
Jorge Vargas
I disagree, for The rest of the continent America is not just the United States, for the rest of the continents America is the United States.
Mr Uptown
I will restrain my self from being disrespectful, I will explain in a way that even you can understand: For an average citizen in Greece, Italy, Serbia, And yes, NIGERIA, They know the united states as "America", and many people in small villages Don't even know that other countries in the continent like Colombia or panama exist, much less that they are also part of the American continent. 90% of the people in the Americas, even people in small towns know that There is a "United states" but do not know it as "America", and also know relatively where it is.
I just cannot believe that you think I am that stupid, but more surprised that, if you are born and raised in the Usa with all the access to education, can't understand such an easily and plainly comment from someone born and raised in a third world country like me, there is nothing wrong with my first comment, you are just too self centered like most people In the Usa to understand it😂😂😂😂
Just get a passport and permission every 6 months. Boom that easy.
Thing is they bring and spend a lot of money in Mexico economy, so it’s net positive for Mexico
yes, I live in a small coastal city with many many american retired people and I mean they are cool, just mostly kind old people walking in sandals spending their money on overpriced stuff haha, they may ask for directions from time to time
So is all the cheap labor Mexicans do in Murica
All these American geezers probably crowd the doctors offices and hospitals down there though. That could be a problem for the Mexican elderly.
And most mexicans in USA put his hard work. Maybe most of them dont have much money but are always in the jobs most americans dont want to do.
@@kikeuchiha95 Keep in mind, most Americans "don't want to do these jobs" because the wages are driven lower by the presence of economic migrants. Regarding agriculture in particular, the bracero program used to allow migrants, largely Mexican, to work legally in the field on a temporary basis, but it was found to lower wages and conditions for domestic farmhands and was eventually scrapped, so now we have this uneasy arrangement that's gone on since.
América es un continente y México una gran nación. Saludos a todos los compatriotas mexicanos y amigos Mexicano-Estadounidenses !

Thank you. Will come one day...very next day I sell my house! LOL. Many my friends in US are Mexican. I LOVE the food, actually they call me Mexican. I eat peppers with the best of them! I grew up listening to Polka in my Dads barn so ...I got the music in me! Ohla! Any tips let me know. I have not looked into what I need to do to stay. I want to stay not just visit.
And when you come to México, your healthcare will be subsidized by the working people in México, no problem with that, we are happy to do that.
But tell your friends.
Any business owner will be more than happy to accommodate these expats. The only people who will be upset are those who have nothing better to worry about (low-life losers, busy bodies)
lalotong believe this or not, many Irish in Spain are doing exactly the same as what the American expats are doing in Mexico. One, the costs of living is cheaper in Spain than in Ireland and this is great for many elderly Irish people. Two, for health reasons, old-age pensioners leave Ireland for the warm weathers in Spain when it is winter back home. They return home when the Irish weather improves or when the weather gets too hot in Spain. Elderly Irish people feel acute pains of arthritis during winter and less so in summer.
A few things that are missing in this post... The Americans do not demand welfare asset from Mexico..nor do they hold there hand out for a monthly check.... , makes a big difference in attitudes.
Mexico needs to build a wall and have the US pay for it.. 😁
all americans are welcome in mexico except trump :v
Trump and all the people around him
And Trump supporters - you dont want those degenerates in Mexico either.
4mulas trump need to take a 2 week vacation to Mexico so he can fall in love with mexico thats it.

Everyone is welcome to México, no prejudice here. Enjoy y bienvenidos.
One gets so sick of this USA Anglo obsession with this papers or not? mentality. What most don't get is that many legals really were death squad thugs in their home countries and yet got papers. I'll take the average run undocumented person over these legalized gangsters with money and pull anyday.
Except Central Americans
You are so kind :o)
Ixan Drol ❤️❤️❤️
You mean everyone bringing money is welcome to Mexico. And make no mistake about it, anti- american and especially anti-central american racism in México is stronger than ever.
The way things are going in the United States I might go to Mexico and look for a job!
As Kamala Harris said once "Do not come".
I believe it’s a serious time in Mexico for u to work...
What you should do is get an online job that pays you in dollars while living in Mexico, you can literally have a high middle class lifestyle with US minimum wage in Mexico.

if this is so, y so many breaking the law to get here? perhaps mexico could do a better job taking care of their poor.
You can say that about most places , if it weren't for politicians it would be a great place .

Stop bigotry. Stop being selfish culture vultures. Spread love and prosperity.

Immigrants who benefit the economy, who are not a burden on the legal justice system should be legal everywhere. Immigrants who have special circumstances, should be judged on an individual level, according to their safety and the safety and well being of others already in the host country.
As long as these people treat Mexico with respect, abide by the laws etc, they should be allowed to stay.
immigrants are the same everywhere... you just don't know because you believe the lies American TV tell you.
There are a lot of immigrants that quit the army and some of them train cartel members. There are other army vets with PTSD and a violent behavior. There are also violent racist tourists. Not all of them are OK and when they cross the line they are out. They are not always the good people that come here
Do you know that these Americans are selling Mexican real estate? Do you know what happens after that? They already inflated the house prices in USA, now they are doing it in Mexico.
@@ddmddmd Right on spot, many are opioid addicts, and other lazy ones are selling Mexican properties to other foreigners 😤, they are inflating the cost of living in Mexico, like they did in USA. Mexican authorities should prohibited them to buy Mexican land.
We Mexicanos are more Americans than Donald Trump.
Think about it. . .
In fact, Donald Trump is anti American
I don't know what Donald Trump is but I sure wouldn't miss him if he left the USA.
He is not only screwing things up for you crossing the border but he is screwing it up for old people, poor people, ethnic groups of all descent in the US. In fact he would attack anybody who votes democratic in the US. So you are not the only one with a problem with Donald Trump. He is a selfish ingreat who is only concerned about his own wealth and his rich republican friend's wealth. As to the fact that you are more Americans that "the Donald" I would say you are the same.
Dustin, if you own stock get ready for the big drop when the North Korean crisis heats up. The stock market has been going up for the last nine years and the bank traders are going to start unloading all of their 2007 or 2008 stock purchases to take profits. I may be wrong but I don't want any stocks right now. When you get old your priorities are different that when you are young. Can't you see that the people in power do not have the middle classe's best interest at heart. They just want to take care of the wealthiest Americans and quite frankly everyone will suffer in the long run. So it doesn't make any difference if I own stock or work. It only makes a difference when all of you don't realize you are getting screwed one turn at a time . Why would anyone want an unstable president like this guy anyway?
George Minton...keep on believin' that hogwash. You hate America and don't want her to prosper....admit it. You are a communist, plain and simple.

Sounds like a bunch of financialy stable retirees going down there and spending their money. Wouldnt make sense to kick them out.
Cheaper cost of living.
cattigereyes1 Sounds like music to my ears...
Lower standard of living also...
@@CurmudgeonExtraordinaire Not if you bring your wealth with you.
@Oddwolf 799 -- Sure, there are areas in Mexico that can be nice, but on the average, the standard of living there is less.
The biggest problem that I would have to retiring there is that I would not be able to keep my gun collection since they only allow the criminals / drug cartels to have guns and I don't do / deal in drugs...
@Oddwolf 799 -- Neither Kalifornia nor the leftist warrens of the NorthEast are representative of the rest of the US (i.e. the "fly-over" states). Neither of those two areas would I want to live in. You can't have everything in one place, so you have to make compromises based on the factors that you consider most important to you. For me, freedom (and not having to shovel snow) is important, so I live in Texas. Unfortunately, we made the mistake of going from being our own country to joining the US back in 1846 -- otherwise, we would have probably annexed Mexico and taught them how to do Mexican food *right*... :)

It is part of the ignorance within the US. Also those who claim other wise, they have no idea about the residents in Mexico or anywhere else in the continent.
If an African is born in China are they really Chinese? You have no cultural ties to the Americas your ancestors come form Europe.
That goes both ways.. only difference is Mexico doesn't make a fuss about it as the United States do.. immigrants in the US contribute more into the economy than Americans do in Mexico. The difference is brown gets singled out .. bigotry at its finest .
Mostly retirees, & very friendly ppl!

Mexico is the friendliest country in the world🌸🎻💕✌🏻️🏅
luverizimo yea no wars
luverizimo very true. Most documentaries about Americans living in Mexico talk about the great weather or how cheap it is, but the best part of living in Mexico is living with Mexicans. So much healthier than living with narcissistic, pretentious, and mean Americans.
luverizimo: Yes, that's why nobody respect us......
luverizimo u should see how they treat south America immigrants
México treats badly some south America immigrants because if they don't do that then USA would take some bad political actions vs us and the economy here will suffer. (bad English sorry it's the third language I am learning so I have some trouble)
I'm confused why the Americans living in San Miguel are considered illegal? They all have tourist visas and they are all allowed to renew those visas after six months. It's all legal. What am I missing?
Michael Morrell
You are not, this comments are just confused, take care bud.
you are not supposed to live or have a business or a job with a tourist visa. Some of them also overstay their visas. Most take advantage of the loophole and renew their visas every 6 months. That means they are permanently living as a tourist, which means they get to live there without paying most of the taxes that a resident should be paying.
You're not supposed to live with a tourist visa? OK, I get what you mean. But you are wrong. That's exactly the beginning of the path towards citizenship. You first need to "live" there legally on a tourist visa. There is no other way to begin the process. And renewing the visa isn't a loophole. And what taxes are you talking about? Homeowners pay property tax. Yes, you can be a homeowner on a tourist visa. If the government had a problem with it, you wouldn't be able to. If you rent, your landlord pays those taxes. Sales taxes are paid. What other taxes are the tourists skirting? In the end, these "illegal" tourists are generally very good for the economy, everyone understands that.
Any if they stay out of the U.S. that long, they lose any state residency as most states also require that you actually live in them to claim you are a state resident.
Michael Morrell 🙄
Boy I hope I can retire "illegally" in my 70s too .
Hahahaha! Your so funny!
Being in Mexico on a 6 month visitor visa is not retiring illegally in Mexico.
Just don’t work, and be aware of the diplomatic climate between the U.S. and Mexico at those times you cross back-while it’s rare for relations to get cold, Mexico will negatively react when it thinks the U.S. is overstepping. Have a plan B you can set in place if you’re unable to return at the time you planned.
The aduana also has discretion as to who they let in. It’s very rare that they stop anyone, but it’s known to happen. A difficult official can also limit your stay to 90 days rather than give you the full 180.

How hard is it to get a retired visa? In Ecuador it was relatively painless...
I'm retiring to Mexico, USA is too expensive to live in , yet retire in. I love Mexico, always have. The Mexican people are awesome and welcome expats to their country. USA has become a hateful and angry place because of Trump, I,m not alone there are a lot of people retiring to Mexico.
Yup. I'm headed there, too. Hopefully to a place that will not have an invasion of gringos, though.
But why don't they want us in the us we work hard pay taxes do jobs no one wants 2 do so how are we not helping the us economy...im from Monterrey Nuevo Leon and live in texas now as a us citizen.i built bridges for the state of tx welded all the gurders/beams and also the L.A Rams stadium beams and now the company has a project for a new google facility, built battery tanks for the oil fiel..i feel I have helped the community,and feel a little bit privilege 2 say my welding identification # was stamped on on the la rams project..but anyways i was brought hear when I was young so I didn't have a choice I asked my parents why leave the butiful 3rd biggest city they said for opportunity, now that my bros and sis are all grown with our own family's they want 2 move back and I find my self wanting 2 move to something tropical like puerto Vallarta, playa del Carmen somewhere I can retire some day where there are foreigners lots of American and Canadian people...i love my country and just the free feeling get every time I cross the border line...
I for one as an American (white male) appreciate the Mexicans coming over, don't like the border much less a wall. I plan to move to Mexico in the next year. I get that same feeling when I cross the border and I am not even Mexican.

If there was no border and no control of crossing then there wouldn't be Mexico and the US, we'd be one, and that feeling would not exist. Think about it. Mutual respect and admiration.
if u r legal, u r welcome. no question. if u r not legal, hit the road jack, go south.
If Mexican Citizens want to come to America the legal route and assimilate that’s perfectly fine with me. But crossing the border illegally is not ok
Wait the world isn't black and white? Blasphemy!!
Americans make Mexico better...and I'm MEXICAN!
These people are in Mexico on tourist visas. Therefore, as long as they respect the visa conditions, it is incorrect to say they are in the country illegally.

Well, it is not completely true that all foreigners living in Mexico are immune to Mexican immigration laws. I was deported from Mexico after being imprisoned for a week for just having my tourist Visa expired for less than 3 weeks. And once you are deported, you are permanently punished. For example, for 1 year, I was completely expelled from Mexico. Then, for the next 5 years, the computer showed me as being "restricted " meaning that every time I flew into Mexico City, I was punished for up to 6 or 7 hours, being detained in a small room without being able to leave or use the phone,before , without explanation, they approved my entrance. And today, 8 years after being deported for overstaying my visa or tourist card, I am still being punished by not being able to use the new, quick automated machines in the airport, and having to wait in line for one of the now very few agents to approve my entrance. And for those of you thinking "oh, he must have done something else"...No, my friends, it was for just having my tourist card expired for 3 weeks, that's it.
I'm an American who lived 4 years in Mexico. No FM-3 (legal resident status(, no other legal paperwork. Just kept renewing tourist visa.
ThinkLascivious do you still refer to yourself as American?
That's still legal, sure it's a loop hole but it's legal. This different to the Mexicans in America who run across the boarder without going through immigration (ie no papers at all) and then set up shop here.
Mexico should deport you.
Pernection America is a continent not a country.
If a mexican does that, they surely take his/her visa away.
You left out the best part. Several years ago AARP Magazine did a feature article on great places to retire and Mexico was on the list. They interviewed a number of Americans who had retired there and interestingly enough a fair number of them had been CEOs of large American non profits! Apparently the way to go is to run a non profit that is basically leaching off the American taxpayer and then when you retire instead of paying something back to your home country by volunteering, etc. you skip out to Mexico where you can have a live in maid for less than you dropped a week in NYC at Starbucks. But it gets better, most of the wealthy retired non profit CEOs interviewed complained bitterly about the poor roads, libraries, and health care facilities south of The Wall. Are you listening Mexico?
I always wondered why CEOs of non profits lived in upscale housing. Must be those 30% administration fees.
I have been here for over 25 years and no one has ever ask me for anything. I tried several times to buy a Visa in Mexicali and was told I didn't need one.
I retired in Thailand legally. Cost of living is so inexpensive, medical care is
Very good and inexpensive. When i lived in Hawaii the cost of living was
Outrageous , tent cities of homeless.
is there an american community in thailand
Just laying low and not being high profile. 👌🏽 My man!
Welcome to Mexico, we all loved it. We are neighbors 💚♥️
I am looking for an apartment there. What area u would recommend?
My friend went to Mexico and was cured of cancer.the us doctors had given him up for dead.the us arrested him for going to Mexico to buy his meds and he died in a federal prison in texas.
Mexican politicians are so smart! They have old Americans who retire and cause no trouble move into there country! They buy goods, clothes ,food And Mexico prospers ! Brilliant!
Cry me a river. The Americans and Canadians put net money INTO the econ.
Patrick EH so do Mexicans in the USA
As an American try and receive free assistance from the Mexican government like food, medical, housing, phone, utilities. Compare guacamoles to guacamoles, not apples.
Patrick EH
So does all the illegal Mexicans in the US
American???? what? so Mexico is NOT in America???? look at the f... map.

You are called Mexico
We are called America
Bill Johnson Is officially Called Estados Unidios de Mexico It's on all their Coins & Paper money..Also there are 3 Countries that Compromise North America...So yes,Mexico is America also..
JC BULLDOG
Obviously it is in Spanish.
They are in North America.
Therefore they are North American.
Bulldog, show some pride.
Bill Johnson I just said that in my Comments that 3 Country's Compromise North America!!! Hello
Bill Johnson america is continent not contry
It’s different. These retirees aren’t in Mexico to live off of taxpayers money. They have their own money.
You mean Gringos in Mexico? Mexicans are Americans too.
Christi Coakley Hell Yeahhhh! called me gringa i love to hear it Hahaha Hahahaha.
.
thats what i was talking to my friends a few days ago. some mexicans cross to the other side illigaly but americans do too. so trump should look at that before calling anyone illigal immigrants. himself is an immigrant he doenst look native to me. actually mexicans are natives to this continent caucasians are not.
The difference is these illegal american or US individuals are welcome because they bring money that supports the local economy, they do not hold jobs, nor do they receive any social services support from the Mexican government. They arrived legally and live on renewable tourist visas supplied by the government while following the laws.
Hermanito, Trump and his people are from a different planeta .. . .
This is a joke. One can come to Mexico and live there. Many thousands own property and come in for six months, leave and return. So long as one is not working for compensation in Mexico, there is not issue with doing this and retuirning every year for a period of time. If one owns real property in Mexico, one pays taxes on it yearly. I have owned a home in Mexico since 1996 and every year I go down and pay the taxes at the local office. In fact, the gringos are probably among the most assiduous when it comes to paying their real estate taxes.
Now if one wishes to move to Mexico permanently they can do so and it is actually pretty easy to do so. One can arrange for a Visa de Residente Temporal - Temporary Resident Visa which allows one to stay longer than six months at a time and which is renewed for up to 4 years. Additionally, one can apply for a Visa de Residente Permanente - Permanent Resident Visa. Under either one can obtain a work permit and work legally in Mexico and many people do so.
not only that, 6 month stays gives a retiree time to travel around and visit so many different cities and towns that are not crowded with rushed tourists trying to do it all in a few days or weeks
the pace of life is different - over time you can learn different ways of enjoying yourself the words and expressions in Spanish the differences in seasoning, drinking, little bits of history you start to understand the Mexican point of view and can see the US from a different perspective
it can take a while to get settled in one place before you get more adventurous
I realized I wouldn't want to live in a lot of the hotter parts of Mexico, at first I though I would get used to Baja Norte which is still close to California and it's easy to go back and forth a lot, learn Spanish, get familiar with the country and move around but I prefer Baja Norte - hot enough for me - just exploring both sides of the Baja peninsula would take a while
eventually you realize you want to be able to understand as much Spanish as possible - you can get by with a minimum amount of English but there is always going to be some kind of language barrier - especially when I'm getting my car worked on or pay to have some other chores it goes a long way to know Spanish and learn regional differences - I can kind of tell sometimes when someone is from the north now - kind of like Spanish with a US western drawl you might hear in Wyoming or Montana
a lot of people in Baja are originally from other parts of Mexico - they will explain how different the customs or food or even politics and religion can be in different Mexican states, just like different states in the US - people in the US lump all Mexicans together but the country is very large and spread out, the diversity in climate is just as diverse as in the US
it's also cheaper to book flights for traveling within Mexico, for that matter flying to Central and South America, it's easier to find great bargains - knowing Spanish can be a big help in other countries further away from the US
Why isn’t Mexico accepting in all the South American Refugees? But instead, assisting them to the American Border?
@@MienemLeben Most aren't from South America. Most are from Central America where the USA has done such great harm by interfering in politics there.
@@MienemLeben Mexico has always taken in immigrants from other countries including Central and S. American. You can't blame Mexico for migrants choosing to continue their migration north to the US instead.
I love the fact U.S americans and canadians are coming to Mexico! Much love to Canada and The U.S
With money or without money all good people are welcome to Mexico.
@Random Person I am welcoming them, not the Mexican state or the rotten rich. You misunderstood my writing.
I love both my countries!💗🇲🇽🇺🇸
Welcome to México US citizens 😀👍🇺🇲
I am looking for apartment there. What area u would recommend?
Why don't they get a permanent resident's visa? Is it difficult to obtain?
Why?
Irony...
They say Mexicans are the problem because they are illegal.
They say Mexicans don't pay taxes.
They say Mexicans must speak "American" because they are in the US.
And then you see this video...
(๑•ૅㅁ•๑)
Maybe just maybe we are also against people going to Mexico, not speaking Spanish and staying illegally, maybe we hold the same standards across the board.
They don't speak Spanish. And people there have no problem about it.
Osmrcl C. Yeah, I still think if you go to another country illegally and refuse to speak the Language is wrong, no matter the country
@Ryan Shannon : funny you say that; I'm from Spain and in Alicante there's like 1 million expatriates from England/Scotland, they've been in Alicante for more than 50 years , they don't want to learn Spanish nor intermingle - integrate in mainstream Spanish society or culture., whereas lately Russians and German immigrants have been arriving in the late 90's and all of them speak Spanish, oh, but yeah, British ask for medicine and medical assistance, asking for all their privileges, that they can acquired, but it is thanks to the very weak Spanish government towards immigration to the brits that they obtain and acquired all their privileges, without paying taxes. So what's your point. oh, and btw, whites in USA are the ones that get more food stamps than anybody else. I see Mexican people as MORE AMERICAN, because at least they have 100% native American DNA, from their ancestors, Aztecs, Mayans, which are considered the real AUTHENTIC AMERICANS. you Anglo American never crossed the color line 500 years ago, whereas the Spaniards did.
Many Americans or "MANY USA CITIZENS" 😂
thank you very much mi mexico let's show the world people can leave peaceful in mexico , mi gente mexicana asi se le muestra a todo el mundo que mexico les da la vienvenida a todo el mundo que mas hermoso ver que todos unidos y ayudando no importa el color o de donde seas en mi mexico hay un lugar para todos , no solo lo malo
Staying for 6 months on a tourist visa isn't illegal. The length of stay can also can be extended while in Mexico. Pretty much the same as here in the US. Let's say 1 out 4 overstayed which is overly optimistic. And if 1 out of 4 retirees are American, that would mean around 1,000 are illegal. 1,000 illegals pouring money into their economy vs easily over a million Mexican illegals fleecing taxpayers in the US. Totally different picture and not even worth bargaining for.
All good in my book
ALL GOOD IN MY BOOK

Hey Vato, you have porn star name hahaha
"The expats are contributing and helping the economy I see no issue."
For one, they are not paying health care for what it costs.
They are being subsidized by the working people in México.
racist af
Most places where Americans live are clean and nice,that's a big difference..they don't go throwing litter everywhere is forbbiden like many Mexicans do it,as an adittional comment they have contributed a bunch to the economic growth in this state...I have alaways been treated very good when I travel to the States and I always treat them in the same way...so You are welcome to Mexico.
Lived in SMA in the late 90's. It was the best experience of my life. Unfortunately times have changed. It's become too touristy, expensive and now dangerous due to the increase activity of the drug cartels in Guanajuato state. I'm sure there are other areas of Mexico still worth living in. I much prefer the people. the community, the cost of living in Mexico, than living in Canada.
Oh the double standard of a lot of these people...
I left when I went to visit because I thought I was in Tennessee.
I will go to Mexico one day.. soon
Ghee they don't mind being illegal in Mexico but God forbid you do the same thing in the US!!!
But you need a temporary residency visa to register a car, is that not correct? And it's expensive and a bureaucratic hassle to bring a car from the U.S. And they are strict about having a car without the proper visa (according to my reading), and impose serious consequences. So you need more than a tourist visa if you want to really get around. And what about other areas of Mexico? Are they as lax as San Miguel.
"It's not like the uk" - right in the face, mate 😸😸😸
I thought this was The Onion.
Illegal US citizens go with money in the bank and pockets. Spend it there. Illegal Mexican citizens come to the US with empty pockets and no money in the bank and get money in the US. Send their children to school free. Get food stamps( Lonestar card in TX). And, yes, I am positive of this because I see it all the time.
That is so not what the Mexicans do in America. I know this for a fact. I have family and close friends that work here in the U.S. and send a great deal of money back home to Mexico. Some Americans are so naïve.
