Been here close to two years after moving from Florida. There is WAY TOO much wrong with the US. Medical professionals here are MUCH better, prescription drugs are mostly over the counter without necessary prescriptions, water, electric, trash removal, day to day costs, taxes, freedom, you name it, EVERYTHING IS BETTER IN MEXICO! People are focused on family and other people, not money. I can go on forever but you get the idea! Thanks to Jose for what he does!!

I'm Yucateco born and raised in Merida, I was lucky enough to get a software engineering job in the US lived there for a couple of years and now I'm back home working remotely. I do fully understand the concept of freedom as I am also experienced living in both worlds. I do see a lot of people moving to Merida recently as its a great place, with hot tropical weather, just to clarify about the taxes, doing business in Mexico is different than the US a lot of people work in the informality, like having no permit, no insurance however other businesses do work in formality like having a permit, paying taxes and so on but it depends. The vast majority of business transactions are informal ones. So it's up to you to decide who you do business with. Also, the average Mexican is heavily taxed they get a cut of their salary of up to 30% as far as I know no law forces any foreigners or residents to pay taxes as long they are not making a considerable income. However, the worst thing that can happen is you getting fined. Everyone is welcoming here to foreigners just don't get into trouble and you will be fine.

Jose, I have been in Tijuana for a year and a half now for the exact same reasons as you. I feel exactly how you do. Things in the US have gotten so bad that is the reason why I moved here. Unfortunately, I still have to work in the US and cross the border every day. Once I cross that border in the US I feel like I’m in prison too. When I come home to Tijuana, stress just comes off of my chest.

Freedom is pretty simple to understand, it's a concept of not being interfered with, to be able to conduct your life, doing what you want to do so long as you're not hurting anyone els. As an adjacent to that I'd say property rights are also conducive to freedom as they allow one to live their best life and anyone that cares about freedom would also want to be free from the government which would impose restrictions and taxation on their property.

Wow. Only 1 hour and this video has 1000 views. Great. Nice neighborhood like a neighborhood I drove through in Guadalajara a few months ago. Freedom is the word your looking for. I saw your videos from a few years ago. Other walk videos where you were in Merida downtown talking about the same subject. It was excellent too. You were talking about being free from harassment you experienced in USA. You make great videos with excellent, experienced narration. Now you’re married, I remember when you first met Crissy. Congratulations on that. I remember when you both took the bus to spend the day at the beach in Merida, bringing food I think many people went to Mexico 🇲🇽 and of course Merida after watching your videos. I remember the early days when you got there You’ve come a long way. Thanks for your videos. I like your complete honesty. I hope you visit Ajijic/ Chapala / Jocotepec área someday to make videos. 👍🇲🇽

Hola, Jose! I've been watching your vids since last year when my first visit to Mexico was also my first visit to Merida. I fell in love!! That Hat Man you ran into in this video is the same o e I bought MY hat from. It looked like you were on the same street I walked to go from my hotel in Paseo 60 to Paseo Montejo!! What a coinky-dink! I wore that hat for my whole trip, including the flight back to this hellified place called America! She breaks my heart everyday now and one of my escapes is watching content about Merida. It's my happy place. Planning to come back around. Your info and points of are relevant, no-nonsense and sometimes even funny. I like it! Sending a token of thanks your way. Keep doing the walking tours. They're my faves. Dios lo bendiga, amigo!

Different parts of Mexico acted differently same as in the USA. In both countries there were states who either Cared or didnt care. Some had 0 rules and others had 1,000,000 rules. But in the end even the states with the strictest rules like the Yucatan were a cakewalk compared to lets say California. I lived in one of the most restrictive states and documented everything and in the end it was basically Florida. Thanks for sharing!

Taxes! As a person who still has American assets, I can tell you that it is very tricky to get those assets out of the country and into Mexico without the US having their sticky tax fingers on it. I don’t want to say too much because you never know who is watching.

If you look hard enough you can still many homes in those price ranges. Maybe not in the neighborhood I was walking through but for sure in many parts of Merida. It takes a lot of digging but there are tons of gems out there!
