I love US, Canada, and Mexico .. different places different type of people .. but what I like the most is the variety of "hospitality" from each country.
James White Ensenada is beautiful. I moved out of the city years ago because I don't care for big cities. Ensenada is growing fast. It has everything from walmart, costco and many great restaurants. Also a beautiful malecon (breakwater) and some fantastic playas. Anyone that likes city life would like Ensenada. A lot of gringos live north of Ensenada in Rosarita, also pretty place, but not as safe in my opinion.
Me gustò mucho. Soy tapatio y siempre me ha interesado conocer Baja California de lado a lado. Cada regiòn del paìs tiene su propia personalidad e identidad y considero que las ciudades fronterizas de Baja son muy interesantes para conocerlas, y por supuesto al sur La Paz, Los Cabos, etc.. Un abrazo a la banda de Baja California con todo respeto.
Safee Ilmudeen u can get by pretty well in TJ with limited spanish, but its not safe alot of drugs and crime and incompetent police force i seggest go to the coastal cities where all the tourism is at. They are the safest: Cancun, Cabo,Puerto vallarta etc...oh and the upscale areas in mexico city
I've been going down to Baja from San Diego for at least 22 years and I've never had a problem. The people are very sweet and friendly, the scenery is great, the beaches are beautiful and wide open, and great surf! I love the wine country near Ensenada, beautiful! Really love Rosarito and points South. TJ is a tourist trap but it has really nice upscale areas if you get out of the tourist track. And of course been all the way down to Cabo too. Love it there, don't believe all the negative comments people make, usually they have not been there themselves and/or have some kind of prejudicial viewpoint. I love Baja!
I live in San Diego I have been going 2 Baja since I was 4 yrs old.I'm 49 now.My junior high and high school were located about 4 miles from the border.Some days me and friends used 2 ditch some classes and go 2 Baja and eat tacos on the street.The best tacos are the ones street vendors sell.MY ex girlfriend of 17 yrs lived and still lives in rosarito mexico,so I would go 2 rosarito every weekend 2 see her.I cant really say that I ever had any major proplems in mexico.Of course for a while in 2007 or 2008 the cartels were doing a lot of killings,but they weren't really after americans ,these were fights between cartel gangs,and of course if you were and the worng place at the worng time,chances were you may get hurt.And yes many police officers were corrupt.and there was a lot of kidnappings for ranson (MONEY) however U spell it.Baja is much safer now however you always need 2 keep you'r guard up.Baja is trying very hard 2 keep it safe for tourist and has cleaned up the police force,due 2 the killings and kidnapps they had back in the early 2000's that drawed a lot of tourisim away from Baja,and Baja lost millions of $$$$$ many business closed and many people lost jobs.GO 2 Baja enjoy you'r selfs and have a good time.First BEER is on me.
Thanks for the update...TJ is really doing a great job getting everything together over there. I go to TJ at least once a week now to bring my father there for health care. Thanks for the post!
The complete name is Baja California, don't try to abbreviate it we're trying to avoid that, saludos desde la capital del estado, Mexicali, Baja California :)
Great video - well made and informative to those that still have doubt traveling into Mexico. Buen hecho. We welcome a new Baja and a new travel to Mexico. VIVA MEXICO!
Tijuana is a great place with great people...Native Mexicans are the most generous, warm and kind people you would ever meet. Like any big city TJ has place that you need to stay away from but then there are places that are AMAZING! We travel to TJ weekly and absolutely love it. DON'T BELIEVE THE NEWS HYPE!!!!
True, if you’re Californian in any way (Upper Californian or Baja Californian, white, bronze or black - You are Mexican at heart! And we Mexicans Love all of our Californianos brothers.. - We Love You...
On your next visit to TJ, go to BCB (Baja Craft Beer) if you haven't gone there yet, it's a relatively new bar dedicated to local and regional craft beers. If you want directions you can find them easily on their Facebook page, Google or ask a Tijuanense :P.
Why do they keep calling it just Baja? It is called "Baja California." it's kinda annoying not only in the United States they have a state that is called California.
As a child, Dad was always taking us on his trailer all the way up to San Francisco, CA (Upper Ca) enjoying the China town faire and amazing food, then hitch up the trailer again and head down to Baja California and Deep Mexico, Mazatlan, Queretaro, Etc to eat grilled jumbo garlic lime shrimp, rice, beans, warm homemade flour tortillas, limeade with salt on top.. Fresh off the brasas grilled pollo.. He did this as an easy and memorable way to learn our Mexican heritage all the way from Upper Ca to Baja Ca.. OurbSan Diego year round school afforded us this As an adult, I’m still remembering! (and you guessed it) sometimes really miss the far Southern part of California and desperately feel like I need to touch “earth” again down there someday.. Your tips make it seem so easy (this time without the trailer) .. I just might go back to visit my Original California roots sometime soon- Thanks...
I like the video very informative and positive. My brother's live in Cabo San Lucas an they say its beautiful however they do spend most of there time working so they cant enjoy it as much as they would like. Am planning to move there next year and looking forward to it. ( I live in USA )
Wonderful video. Can you recommend a forum for U.S. Citizens who are planning to relocate to Baja? Somewhere to get details on long-term rentals, vehicle registration issues, etc?
Aurelio Quinonez it might seem like that . it just gets me nuts that gringos are so lazy to speak and I find it disrespectful to just name it "Baja" its BAJA CALIFORNIA !!!!!
YES IT APPEARS TO BE SOMETHING IT IS NOT...I LOST A CLOSE FRIEND WHO WAS CAMPING ON SAN QUINTON BEACH IN BAJA, AND HIS VAN WAS FOUND TORCHED WITH HIS BODY INSIDE....SO MY ADVICE? IF YOU TRAVEL TO MEXICO DO NOT TRAVEL " ALONE"...OR TRAVEL AT YOUR OWN RISK...I LIVED IN CALIFORNIA FOR MANY YEARS....MANY VISITORS TO MEXICO GO MISSING BUT YOU NEVER HEAR ABOUT IT....

Great video 👍👍 I live in California & I would like to move to baja & work over there. Can you advice me what kind of job I can get being fluent in english, spanish & some french.
I travelled to Los Cabos for over 20 years and its a beautiful and peaceful place to be.The beaches are stunning and very clean , many activities to do like snorqueling, cruises,boating,fishing .golfing, scuba diving, sightseeing,eco tours, horseback riding ,nice shopping , wonderful hotels for all budgets,very classy restauranys and many to choose from with mexican food, seafood and other food from other countries....People are very friendly and everytime we visit ,we have an amazing time with kids or without them !!!!.....San Jose is very close also and is a beautiful little town ...!!!!
So you disagree with her post and start on a personal attack. I agree with her. I have flown into Baja many, many times, while I lived in San Diego we spend a lot of time on the beach from below Ensenada for at least 100 miles. We know more than a few that got robbed, lady got rapped, and her boyfriend got beat up under the threat of a gun. My family and friends stopped going and I have tons of stories about TJ and beyond. Yes, it has its good parts and good people but to ignore the roving bands of jerks down there is doing those that knows nothing, a huge disservice. It seems there is a lot of talk about drinking and smoking weed. What does that tell you about the source?
I think we have seen a bottom...I am predicting that next year will be the start of a nice recovery for Mexico. Less crime and tons and I mean TONS of foreign investment capital will start pouring in. THE REASON I SAY THIS IS BECAUSE I AM WATCHING THE BIG MONEY MOVING TO MEXICO... MANUFACTURING IS ALREADY BIG AND IS GOING TO GET MUCH BIGGER. I believe good times are in store for Mexico if the government plays their cards right. It is theirs to lose
I am sharing this with my friends. It's very good. However, I was afraid at first to view it, because of the wording of its promotion. You might want to change the initial comments to reflect positive ideas instead of reminding people of negative stereotypes.
I completely understand as we deal with the negative comments daily. More people are interested in the negative then the positive which is very sad but a reality. We have tested in other article and videos and have found we get a better result with more bold subject lines. This is our number one watched video on youtube and I don't think we would have had as many views if I went softer on the title. I promise you there is nothing more I would love to do then to focus on the positive of Mexico but we have 5 years of very negative marketing about Mexico that we are not going to fix in a short period of time. This is one of my favorite videos because I do live here and the people are real in this video...not actors and the places are real...not staged!! So for all the people that believe the media hype that Mexico is a war zone should watch this video and see what a beautiful and exciting place it is...Thanks for taking the time to comment on the video. Have a great weekend
The local mexican citizens in Baja probably love the American Tourists because they bring money! Since they probably work for very little say $5 a day Mexico's Minimum wage having American tourists around is a good thing for Baja it boost the economy making all most the to the standards that Americans take for granted.
The word BAJA is a geographical reference meaning LOWER. Before the border happened, the territory was divided into UPPER CALIFORNIA and LOWER CALIFORNIA (In Spanish: Alta California, Baja California). Therefore, saying just BAJA, you're simply saying LOWER......lower What? Have you ever heard anyone referring to CAPE COD as simply CAPE?
Everytime you say BAJA you're saying LOWER....yeah, lower what? EXACTLY. You're supposed to say it all together, Baja California, meaning Lower California. Can you imagine people calling Cape Cod only cape? WELCOME TO CAPE!
@@cdavidb asi le dicen los gringos para, nublar la simbiosidad de los dos estados que en realidad son uno por eso compratimos el california pero la segregacion se les da super bien! quieranse es la unica manera!
@@oscmex Dude you comment makes no sense at all, all we are talking about is the use of common expressions. I live in So Cal, we refer to Northern California as "NorCal", and so forth. There's no harm in saying "Baja", it's just a common expression we use here. I love Baja California, and I love Baja Mexico, and I love California -- that's all you need to know.
Hi I can tell you there is a lot to do for a young person from Europe. You will certainly love it. I strongly recommend Baja California. Having lived in Paris, Stuttgart , Los Angeles and now Baja. As everywhere in the world you need to have accurate information to take a sound decision. It s all about your expectations. Feel free to contact me for recommendations. Best regards!
its U.S. media hype, if they want to believe those lies, its there loss, I'm loving it I live in Tijuana and find overall the same, live in for 44 years
You guys have balls we spanish mex gave the name of California to all those areas and now you are just calling this place baja instead of Baja california.
Since this is produced by Secture and requested by the Baja Image Committee, it's focus is only on Baja California, not sur. But the message focus is on the reality of our area, which is very safe, and should not be included in the travel alerts and media smear job on Mexico. But sur is also helped as well as most of Mexico.
Hello! Exploring Baja is awesome! Why don't you take this adventure while you're learning Spanish? We have great options to learn this lovely language, you will find them following this link: www.rosaritoliving.com/rosarito-beach-spanish-classes/ Have a great day!
This is Baja Norte, I wish you had included Baja Sur, and not Cabo, but La Paz and others. At least clarified that this is the Rosarita, Ensenada area.
I want to move to Mexico. My brother lives in Peurto Vallarta but it's a bit noisy there for me and so far to drive. Seems like an overwhelming task. Baja is pretty close to the USA. How far of a drive from the border so you are far enough away from Tijuana where it's safer? I am from Canada and will drive my cats and furniture, car down. Are there safe places a little bit out of town where I can have a garden? What are the prices for a 1 bedroom house, suite etc?
mexicali in the house, i have lived in honolulu, seatlle, las vegas,(still have condo 1990) .and now cali since 1992, off and on..(property owner since 1995) if i had kept my condo in hono, it would be worth 5 times more now. the houses and land here are easily worth ten times what i paid in 1995. in the mrs. name, who is from cali . from 1995 to 2005 the year i retired early, i drove every weekend if i was not working in vegas. now its swapmeets and flea markets, where i have found $$$, to many items to list. let me know if your looking for any collectables. also, eldorado estates in san felipe, mex have a special going on right now. golf, 2 bedroom condo for 4 people, i think for 3 or 4 days. they will be sales people, but its a cheap way to see the area. ignore the sales pitch, unless? good luck, oh, and it is a great place and you get more bang for your buck...''paz''
Minus the ridiculously high cost of living, minus the super corrupt Big Business/Tech Companies, minus the high cost of housing, plus an self-governing autonomous government. With all these it'll make a great 51st state. They gotta "buy" it from Mexico first!
this is so racist! I am a Baja Californian who loves diversity. The color of people's skin, the shape of their eyes, the places where they were raised do not define what a person might be like.
What is wrong with Tijuana? I go there multiple times a week...It is a great city with a lot of great shopping and great places to eat. Are you saying don't go there because you have had a bad experience or because the news says don't go there? I go there and I love it and can say from 1st hand experience...TIJUANA IS GREAT! and yes I am a gringo and I get greeted with open arms from caring and warm Mexican people
Very bias, considering that they are trying to sell real estate. The real truth is that Baja California is growing rapidly, but it is still dangerous, especially for people who stick out.
Spanish inauguration ring a bell? Spaniards came to Mexico looking for gold. a little tower in Goleta a city in Santa Barbara County California USA spotted the Spaniards sailing up the coast and stop there invasion well over 200 years ago. the little Tower is still there. the oil company property. Remember? I remember.
Baja California has always seemed to me like it should be more true to its namesake--meaning just a lower extension of the state of California, but part of the USA
can you live off of $1800 Canadian in Baja comfortably? Any tips on bringing your own furniture car etc across the border? I don't like basement suite or apartments as I am noise sensitive. are there other more private accommodations that are safe?
Is this really what Baja is like? This is only what a RESORT looks like! all these old men & women are like "we play golf, go to cocktail hour, swim etc. that is our daily routine!" Well only rich people! what i am trying to say is, this is not what Baja California Mexico is really like
For some people, it is this good and even better! We have 15k or more Americans in Rosarito Beach alone. For some, this is their place to have fun, play golf, drink wine, enjoy the sunsets and eat a lot and lots of fish tacos! It is all here if you choose to live it...Best wishes.
LET ME SAY SOMETHING. PRETTY COOL FOR ALL THE AMERICANS AND EUROPEANS, WHO MADE A LOT OF MONEY, AND ARE NOW GETTING A $2300USD. PAYCHECK EACH MONTH, THE RETIRED ONES..... FEELS LIKE AT HOME DESN'T IT ?? JUST A BIT CHEAPER.. NOT A LOT THOUGH , BECAUSE HAVE IN MIND THAT A LOT OF THESE HOTELS AND REAL STATE ARE AMERICAN COMPANIES, SO THEY WILL CHARGE JUST A BIT LESS THAN IN USA.
I love US, Canada, and Mexico .. different places different type of people .. but what I like the most is the variety of "hospitality" from each country.
Arrived here 22 years ago. There is some good and some bad. Compared to the US, Its all good. Love Baja.
Is Ensenada nice??
James White Ensenada is beautiful. I moved out of the city years ago because I don't care for big cities. Ensenada is growing fast. It has everything from walmart, costco and many great restaurants. Also a beautiful malecon (breakwater) and some fantastic playas. Anyone that likes city life would like Ensenada. A lot of gringos live north of Ensenada in Rosarita, also pretty place, but not as safe in my opinion.

I promise you there is nothing more I would love to do then to focus on the positive of Mexico but we have 5 years of very negative marketing about Mexico that we are not going to fix in a short period of time. This is one of my favorite videos because I do live here and the people are real in this video...not actors and the places are real...not staged!! So for all the people that believe the media hype that Mexico is a war zone should watch this video and see what a beautiful and exciting place it is...Thanks for taking the time to comment on the video. Have a great weekend
how much are the houses?
The local mexican citizens in Baja probably love the American Tourists because they bring money! Since they probably work for very little say $5 a day Mexico's Minimum wage having American tourists around is a good thing for Baja it boost the economy making all most the to the standards that Americans take for granted.
no they dont
The word BAJA is a geographical reference meaning LOWER. Before the border happened, the territory was divided into UPPER CALIFORNIA and LOWER CALIFORNIA (In Spanish: Alta California, Baja California). Therefore, saying just BAJA, you're simply saying LOWER......lower What? Have you ever heard anyone referring to CAPE COD as simply CAPE?
Great Video Thanks,
The politics and high living expenses of the usa definitely take a toll on people
Everytime you say BAJA you're saying LOWER....yeah, lower what? EXACTLY. You're supposed to say it all together, Baja California, meaning Lower California. Can you imagine people calling Cape Cod only cape? WELCOME TO CAPE!
Everyone that lives near the border here in So Cal says "Baja", just a common expression if you're a local.
and as a person who grew up in Mass, Cape Cod is mostly referred to as “the Cape”
@@cdavidb asi le dicen los gringos para, nublar la simbiosidad de los dos estados que en realidad son uno por eso compratimos el california pero la segregacion se les da super bien! quieranse es la unica manera!
@@oscmex Dude you comment makes no sense at all, all we are talking about is the use of common expressions. I live in So Cal, we refer to Northern California as "NorCal", and so forth. There's no harm in saying "Baja", it's just a common expression we use here. I love Baja California, and I love Baja Mexico, and I love California -- that's all you need to know.
i live in tijuana...welcome gringos we love you!!!!
we don't like being called gringos.
😊 Not all of us gringos are so sensitive. Thank you!
Why are all videos about Cabo filmed like they were from the 1990s but Bali and Thailand videos were actually filmed properly
America is a continent & a hemisphere not any one country; Mexico is just as much AMERICA as the U.S of.A.
Hi I can tell you there is a lot to do for a young person from Europe. You will certainly love it. I strongly recommend Baja California. Having lived in Paris, Stuttgart , Los Angeles and now Baja. As everywhere in the world you need to have accurate information to take a sound decision. It s all about your expectations. Feel free to contact me for recommendations. Best regards!
1:26 it's a tuff life Sam says.
I am English,my Wife is Mexican,we live in Liverpool,England.Can any of you befriend us?Give us some advice on moving over there?
The baja peninsula could have been part of the us, but was not pursued in the mexican us war. Arguably the best part of north America
It's called Baja California, not Baja Peninsula.
Yep beaches on booths sides and the proximity to California the 5th largest economy
Las Californias son mexicanas por historia NO baja wtf deal with it.
its U.S. media hype, if they want to believe those lies, its there loss, I'm loving it I live in Tijuana and find overall the same, live in for 44 years
Great video...señor at 1:26 has the right attitude...what kind of jobs can a bilingual find down there? Or work from home jobs?
Is Kurt Andersen narrating the video? What a great video.
You guys have balls we spanish mex gave the name of California to all those areas and now you are just calling this place baja instead of Baja california.
Was the guy doing the sub titles on this video high?
Since this is produced by Secture and requested by the Baja Image Committee, it's focus is only on Baja California, not sur. But the message focus is on the reality of our area, which is very safe, and should not be included in the travel alerts and media smear job on Mexico. But sur is also helped as well as most of Mexico.
since 1988, I have hold a deed of license in san Felipe and like to invest in real estate I"M READY!
It's already getting to expensive for use.!
Forgive me for saying so but your subtitles are funny.
You are damn right I'll have fun!!
I would love to check this area out. I have been to cancun twice and peurto vallarta once. I am trying to learn spanish as well.
Hello! Exploring Baja is awesome! Why don't you take this adventure while you're learning Spanish? We have great options to learn this lovely language, you will find them following this link: www.rosaritoliving.com/rosarito-beach-spanish-classes/
Have a great day!
I hope it doesn't change and it doesn't get tore down by Americans and Canadians
I’m living in my apartment here in TJ and I’m enjoying it way too much.
Thanks For Sharing!
We hope you enjoy the great Baja Lifestyle 😁
This is Baja Norte, I wish you had included Baja Sur, and not Cabo, but La Paz and others. At least clarified that this is the Rosarita, Ensenada area.
all. the. USA. people. are. welcome
I love baja!
Saludos desde Mexicali is the capital of Baja California
"They'll endure you"--- ringing endorsement....!
Omg Oprah there 5 times? Ok im in! 😅😅
Awesome video
I want to move to Mexico. My brother lives in Peurto Vallarta but it's a bit noisy there for me and so far to drive. Seems like an overwhelming task. Baja is pretty close to the USA. How far of a drive from the border so you are far enough away from Tijuana where it's safer? I am from Canada and will drive my cats and furniture, car down. Are there safe places a little bit out of town where I can have a garden? What are the prices for a 1 bedroom house, suite etc?
I was going to go to Baja until I saw this video
If I had the money, I would go
ypu don't need much
mexicali in the house, i have lived in honolulu, seatlle, las vegas,(still have condo 1990) .and now cali since 1992, off and on..(property owner since 1995) if i had kept my condo in hono, it would be worth 5 times more now. the houses and land here are easily worth ten times what i paid in 1995. in the mrs. name, who is from cali . from 1995 to 2005 the year i retired early, i drove every weekend if i was not working in vegas. now its swapmeets and flea markets, where i have found $$$, to many items to list. let me know if your looking for any collectables. also, eldorado estates in san felipe, mex have a special going on right now. golf, 2 bedroom condo for 4 people, i think for 3 or 4 days. they will be sales people, but its a cheap way to see the area. ignore the sales pitch, unless? good luck, oh, and it is a great place and you get more bang for your buck...''paz''
wow it looks very relaxing place
Very nice video
Baja California should be the 51st State!
Minus the ridiculously high cost of living, minus the super corrupt Big Business/Tech Companies, minus the high cost of housing, plus an self-governing autonomous government. With all these it'll make a great 51st state. They gotta "buy" it from Mexico first!
this is so racist! I am a Baja Californian who loves diversity. The color of people's skin, the shape of their eyes, the places where they were raised do not define what a person might be like.
What is wrong with Tijuana? I go there multiple times a week...It is a great city with a lot of great shopping and great places to eat. Are you saying don't go there because you have had a bad experience or because the news says don't go there? I go there and I love it and can say from 1st hand experience...TIJUANA IS GREAT! and yes I am a gringo and I get greeted with open arms from caring and warm Mexican people
Very bias, considering that they are trying to sell real estate. The real truth is that Baja California is growing rapidly, but it is still dangerous, especially for people who stick out.
not....
No it’s Not. Stop with the USA Fear BS. Turn off your TV.
The only problem is coming back to the us. Sometime we had to wait on the crossing border 4 hours
Spanish inauguration ring a bell? Spaniards came to Mexico looking for gold. a little tower in Goleta a city in Santa Barbara County California USA spotted the Spaniards sailing up the coast and stop there invasion well over 200 years ago. the little Tower is still there. the oil company property. Remember? I remember.
Baja California has always seemed to me like it should be more true to its namesake--meaning just a lower extension of the state of California, but part of the USA
BroccoliBeefed no
No; part of Mexico.
can you live off of $1800 Canadian in Baja comfortably? Any tips on bringing your own furniture car etc across the border? I don't like basement suite or apartments as I am noise sensitive. are there other more private accommodations that are safe?
There is a place called ajijic in Mexico. There are more whites living there than Mexicans. Just search it on TH-cam
And I believe they live on 2 dollars a day just fine
baja is the best and one day we grow up
You think $2,300 USD per month is a lot? Wow things are worse than I thought there.
I want to go.
Vaya!!!! Tenemos aquí de nuevo el fantasma de 1847!!!
Mexicanos al grito de guerra o pasara lo mismo que en texas
Rolls Bautista' llegan de invitados y se quedan con tu casa
Mexico had both Californias Alta & Baja
Is this really what Baja is like? This is only what a RESORT looks like! all these old men & women are like "we play golf, go to cocktail hour, swim etc. that is our daily routine!" Well only rich people! what i am trying to say is, this is not what Baja California Mexico is really like
For some people, it is this good and even better! We have 15k or more Americans in Rosarito Beach alone. For some, this is their place to have fun, play golf, drink wine, enjoy the sunsets and eat a lot and lots of fish tacos! It is all here if you choose to live it...Best wishes.
can a us citizen buy a house in mexico?
th-cam.com/video/Vvg4kIRh_xk/w-d-xo.html
of course amigo Yes .
No
my uncle is a US citizen but he bought a house in vietnam as well
LET ME SAY SOMETHING. PRETTY COOL FOR ALL THE AMERICANS AND EUROPEANS, WHO MADE A LOT OF MONEY, AND ARE NOW GETTING A $2300USD. PAYCHECK EACH MONTH, THE RETIRED ONES..... FEELS LIKE AT HOME DESN'T IT ?? JUST A BIT CHEAPER.. NOT A LOT THOUGH , BECAUSE HAVE IN MIND THAT A LOT OF THESE HOTELS AND REAL STATE ARE AMERICAN COMPANIES, SO THEY WILL CHARGE JUST A BIT LESS THAN IN USA.
