Hey! There’s are a wealth of information out there. The first thing I’d do if I were you if figure out finances & visa requirements/residency. Then, the fun part, you get to choose where to live! Take a few scouting trips if you haven’t already & take your time really exploring different neighborhoods & pockets of each city you consider. ♥️ good luck! & let us know if you have any other specific questions.
Amazing vid! That first small apartment would be perfect for me. I don't need a lot of space, I just like the location and that clean and modern loft look . Super cool.
Hello! We didn’t decide to live in any of there. We will actually be on an episode of House Hunters International & the one we chose will be revealed there ☺️
Childcare has been very high quality & fairly affordable (for us). We’ve had expeeinces with a nanny agency, an independent nanny & a couple of private bilingual schools. Finding childcare is simple & the culture around children is wonderful so all the caregivers we’ve met have been really great. Similarly we’ve had housekeepers come when we lived in Guadalajara & now in Mexico City.. we kept the person who was already cleaning the house before we moved in so they wouldn’t lose the work & they were great - thorough & affordable.. very sweet. I frequently have lunch with the woman who comes now & it’s great because I get to make her more “American” food like grits lol
You can find those a little bit further away from la reforma. Roma and condesa are very expensive. So look for narvarte. Also you may want to look at neighborhoods a little further away. Just look for a neighborhood with a metro station nearby.
I agree with the comment above. There are more affordable pockets outside of the main gentrified “expat” areas. Coyoacán, Nápoles & Narvarte are really nice. We also like Del Valley a lot. Check out the prices on Mercado Libra & look for pockets close to the bus & train lines.
Yeah, Roma is expensive & a bit crowded but it’s so so so beautiful 😩♥️ We actually chose to live in Del Valle - more families, more affordable & a bit more of a local vibe so we can actually use our Spanish.
New subscriber want to move to Mexico but need more info

Super interested in Mexico City but would like to find something for $700 (2 bedroom). It's okay if we aren't in an expat community. Any suggestions?

$3,315/month is def not worth it. You can buy a condo for cheaper overall.
Yeah, some of these prices are egregious
Expensive look another zone of the city. Why everybody want to live in colonia roma???
