I will say this...of all the beaches I've been to, I have to say that the beaches in the La Paz area are one of the most stunning & breathtaking beaches I've been to. It's like being in an aquarium. The fish come to you. A snorkeler's delight. And the water is pristine, clear. Never seen anything like it.

Beautiful video! All I’m going to say is everything is relative. Everyone has a different perspective. We try to be grateful for all we have and do our best to care for the locals and not complicate their lives. Mexico, as with EVERYWHERE in the world, is ever-changing and there are many variables that impact those changes. 😊

Moved here last November and I love it. There are pros and cons like any other destination, and La Paz (and the surrounding) will not be a good fit for everyone. Don't move, unless you have experienced it beforehand, so visit for a few months in the winter and a few months in summer, and you will have all the answers you need.

Spent about 3 months there last winter and really liked it. It is a bit more expensive than Mazatlan, but quieter. More laid back.

FYI, currently there are no international flights for USA or Canada into La Paz airport. 2. the average prices to live in La Paz are much more than what is stated in this video since the pandemic. Real estate prices have skyrocketed recently making it difficult for the locals to afford property. 😢 3. It’s steamy humid in the summer, otherwise yes, it’s a dry climate. Our CFE bill was $300+ US for 2 months in the summer, and we only ran one mini split at a time :-( Otherwise, beautiful video. I like that you encourage us to shop local. 😊

Thank's so much, Mariana. I really appreciate how you provide the full range of information; you don't simply give a "sugar coated" version of all the good things. I know one big mistake I have made in relocating is to just focus on the positive and then I'm very disappointed when the liabilities or negative aspects burst my overly optimistic (pie in the sky) balloon. When I moved to Ensenada I was thrilled by how inexpensive the rent was; but then I learned the hard way that the cost of water and utilities almost canceled out the low rent! Low water and utillity costs are so taken for granted in most of the United States that many of us (at least me, I should speak for myself) don't even consider the costs of such things before we make the commitment to move! Then when we learn how expensive they are it's like a metaphorical slap in the face!

Personally, after two years here, I can’t wait to get the hell out of here. I’m sure it’s great for those people who have another home to go to during the summer. But if you don’t, it is way too hot here. Up to 95-100° or more every single day.

@josephgarcia2979 Ай бұрын

I enjoy visiting during the months of November thru March/April, but I don't think I can handle the heat during the remainder of the months.

There really are two economies here in La Paz. Tourists and ex-pats vs. locals. I think the video does a fairly good job of addressing the first group. It does not even touch on the second group. For example, the typical Mexican house is around 1,000 sf give or take a couple of hundred. And can be rented long-term (usually unfurnished) for around 5,000 pesos a month. I live south of town and can drive from my home to El Centro in 20 minutes most of the time, although rush hour gets worse every year. So, if you live like a local, and many of us do, then you can easily live here on a US SSA check.

I have been coming here every winter in my RV from the USA and love the area. Campestre Maranatha is where I stay in Chametla and I also love La Ventana for snorkeling and getting out of the city. I plan to spend every winter here as long as I can, though the drive from Arizona is not the easiest.

Do not be fooled, the heat from late May until mid October is no joke. Most people, tourists and locals, make a serious effort to stay out of the sun. During this period it's often in the 80's at sunrise. I'm not saying it's a deal killer, but it's something to be very aware of

Having been to la Paz a few times, I'll attest that it's expensive... Food can be More expensive than Canada for many things. And, although these videos give great information, I'd say in San Jose del Cabo does Not have English speakers unless you're staying in a big hotel. And again, it's expensive!! And, in the real city away from the tourist areas, it's super dirty with garbage all over the roads. It's México, I know... But, still surprising considering the amount of money that comes into that area.

@alekuije9198 3 ай бұрын

Soon, in the medium term, water will be scarce, starting with the capes ( Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo). The water in La Paz is contaminated with heavy metals, the current filters at the municipal treatment plant are not capable of cleaning the water even 50%. The area and towns to the north of the city, in Chametla and The Centenary, the water is poison, causing cancer due to contamination of the groundwater or the exploitation of the La Roca Fosforica mine in San Juan de la Costa. The government hides it and lies to the population, it does not report cancer deaths caused by water contamination.

I was very diapointed with this vidwewo. I am seriously looking into moving to La Paz from san Miguel de Allende. I am trying to understand the cost of living there. Never once did you mention the word "Apartment." I neither want nor need a house. It's just me and my cat. Do you have another video that describes the cost of renting an apartment. I am budget conscious.

@alekuije9198 3 ай бұрын

I don't recommend it, at least not in the hotel area of the malecon. Hotels discharge sewage and wastewater into the sea, violating regulations under the auspices of the corrupt government of La Paz. Tourists don't know this and practice water sports and swim in the bay. We locals never even put our feet on the beach along the boardwalk. It is more advisable to do it after the Coromuel water park or even beyond La Concha beach. Greetings.
