5 things I wish I knew before moving to México

[@andreamartin8832]

@@MovingToMexiCo A tiny pueblo inland from PV called "El Cimarron Chico de la Raicilla". When you talked about the culture shock, when visiting your home country. I'm sure I'll be thinking of your video when that day comes. Appreciate the Content.

[@EasyTarget892]

As someone who lives in Huatulco, but works in Canada still - road laws. While at home a stop sign means slow down unless someone is coming the other way, because if someone is behind you they don't expect you'll stop. Also, when you're a little slower on the highway and want to let someone pass and you move partly on to the shoulder and turn on your left turn signal to tell them it's safe to pass me on the left, not I'm turning left.

[@ClepsidraSideral]

Do you pay taxes in Mexico from your job? If not, when are you leaving?

[@EasyTarget892]

@@ClepsidraSideral - I'm assuming from the way you worded that, you don't want me here. Sorry if you've had issues with foreigners that choose to reside in your country legally. I had to research this before becoming a resident, quite simply so I could ensure I was following all the rules, and could answer this very question, so thanks for asking. Because my income is derived completely in Canada, I'm still required to be taxed at source in that country. This means I fall under Article 21 of Canada - Mexico Tax Treaty (2006) which states: "(2) In the case of Mexico, double taxation shall be avoided as follows: (a) residents of Mexico may credit against the Mexican tax on income arising in Canada the income tax paid in Canada in any amount not exceeding the tax payable in Mexico on such income; and (b) subject to the existing provisions of the law of Mexico, companies which are residents of Mexico may also credit against Mexican tax on dividends paid by companies that are residents of Canada the income tax paid in Canada on the profits out of which the dividends are paid." Since the tax in Canada is higher than in Mexico, I fall under this exemption. I do however pay all taxes required of me as a permanent resident (early actually), and spend the money I earn in my community with local businesses wherever possible. I work in a "protected" industry within the borders of Mexico. Therefore I could never earn an income here as I am not Mexican born. However, if I could work here I would pay my taxes happily. Thanks for your question.

is there a low season inland?? ??Morelia?

[@MovingToMexiCo]

Good question. Yes, Morelia, like many tourist destinations, experiences high and low seasons. The high season typically aligns with major holidays and events, such as: - **November**: During the Day of the Dead celebrations. - **December to early January**: Around Christmas and New Year. - **Easter week (Semana Santa)**: Often attracts many visitors. The low season generally falls outside these peak times, particularly in the summer months and the periods between major holidays. The weather in Morelia is relatively mild year-round, so the distinction between high and low seasons is more related to cultural and event-driven factors rather than significant weather changes.

[@RedroomStudios]

yes, but it's not as extreme. it generally follows the timelines of the dry and rainy seasons. there is also a bump in late July to late August when Mexican students and teachers are on summer holidays.

Any advice on buying a handicapped accessible home?

[@MovingToMexiCo]

Be sure to try before you buy. Choose areas with good infrastructure, accessible amenities, and proximity to healthcare.

Is Uber easily available there? I’ve heard yes and no.

[@MovingToMexiCo]

It's hit and miss with Uber once you leave Puerto Vallarta. But I have heard that there is an company called inDrive that is more popular here. You can always take taxis as well.

How did you learn Spanish and could you recommend some best ways to do so? Thx

[@MovingToMexiCo]

I am not fluent by any means but I do pretty well. Here’s a tip. Before venturing out to the market, have a script in mind. So you might say, in Spanish, good morning how are you? They say “buenos días im good thanks.” Then you say, “can you help me find the pineapples?” And when they do you say gracias. And that would be your lesson for that day. Then you expand on that everyday. Does that make sense?

Im considering making the move from canada to mexico. One of my main concerns is noise lol i wear earplugs to bed, and my dogs breathing is still too loud for me to sleep lol anyone else an EXTREMELY light sleeper that made that move? Does it get easier? Please say you get used to it lol

[@MovingToMexiCo]

Maybe some white noise machine 🤷‍♂️

Look carefully when you rent a place - go month by month at first and check it out at different times of day, days of the week, holidays. Check for bars in the area. Make sure your br and office is back off the street, when you find a great place you can do some sound insulation. Tile floors here cover w rugs. Metal doors are common, few double paned windows. We have Home Depot and lots of great albañiles, clever general construction workers. I love having a general house assistant on-call for these issues.

Wow, I live in a small town and I rarely see a foreigner, that town is full of foreigners

[@MovingToMexiCo]

San Panchos is near the very popular and touristy town of Sayulita.

[@netcoin]

I like the walk through the town. A gimbal would help you to stabilize the image. ⚖

[@MovingToMexiCo]

Thanks. I do have a gimbal.

Never, never say rude things about anyone or the country in public. Your waiter has a dozen cousins and by the end of the day they will all hate you.😂❤❤

[@MovingToMexiCo]

Thanks for sharing!

[@debbemitchell4816]

I though, because of your title, that you were going to talk about really important things.

Reminds me of the people that move next to an airport and complain about noise. 🤣 dumb

[@MovingToMexiCo]

For sure!

[@jpam59]

Well Mexico is not perfect but least is less dangerous than be in the usa ,school, churches, malls etc it's dangerous to be in😢😢😢

[@MovingToMexiCo]

That’s right. There’s no perfect place.
