Great, fun videos! Enjoyed looking at the places you guys are considering, especially since my wife and I will have a decision coming up December 1st when our lease expires. We retired from Michigan 4 months ago and chose to start in San Luis Potosi. There are many positives here (e.g. climate, affordability, centrally located, airport) but I really love the idea of being walking distance to a malecon on the Pacific Ocean or Gulf of Mexico. But man, most of those places are so darn hot and humid!! I noticed you have Puerto Vallarta on your list for example. It is very hot and humid there. Just wondering, have you guys lived in a place with extreme heat and humidity that lasts for months? La Paz has less heat and humidity overall than Puerto Vallarta, or anywhere in the Riviera Maya area, but it does get up to "sweltering" temperatures at a certain point in the middle of the summer and is extremely hot for at least 4 months. On your list of pros and cons for each place, how did you factor in the extreme coastal climate? For many people, the oppressive heat must be just an unpleasant fact that is more than offset by other positives.
@TheYarbros2 жыл бұрын

If you want to be near the ocean check out Ensenada in Baja. The weather is great year round it has a cool malecon with all types of restaurants and food carts to choose from and just like everywhere in Mexico the people are friendly and helpful. I brought my car but rarely use it because I can walk or ride my bike to everything I regularly need. BTW-I was born in Wyandotte and lived in Ann Arbor until fifth grade before moving to Fort Lauderdale, Florida through college and then to the LA/Ventura area before retiring early and moving to Ensenada in November 2022. Buena suerte!
