Why Are People Passing On Mexico...& Where To Go

[@gregorgman]

We moved to Mexico two years ago and it is soooooo much better than the USA that words cannot describe. We would never consider going back. Even with crime, inflation, population, etc on the rise those areas are way behind the USA and won't catch up. This is " home".

[@TheYarbros]

Hey there! Glad you found your home. It's funny how you KNOW when you find it.

[@anitamendez116]

As Always, Great Video and content. You guys are so on point with your travel experiences. I currently live in Mexico and I am definitely feeling the rise in the cost of living. Mexico’s economy is getting stronger and stronger every month which in turn is causing a financial increase in all qualifying categories for Residency which is not as affordable for those, like myself, that are on a fixed retirement income. Mexico is a vibrant, beautiful and overall safe country with very friendly people, great culture and great food. Mexico is still a great destination, however, it may not be affordable for those receiving low or moderate retirement income.

[@TheYarbros]

Yes, I feel like fixed income has it the hardest but it seems like MX still has some "affordable" beautiful choices. Thanks for supporting us w/ your views!

[@humbertocarrera9136]

I am Mexican i am pretty open minded about migration and tourism, you guys are very welcome here. And though we are pretty weñcome to foreigners, some things you Should know: Yo mentioned the most common reason US people moves to México is due to low cost-high life Quality… well most people in Mexico have a high cost - low quality of life because business and rent and other things will follow trends.. here the average income per person is from $8000-$12000 pesos a MONTH (around $500 US dollars) and the average rent for a small apartment in CDMX is about $6000-$8500 a MONTH So if someone is OK by paying $500 + rent monthly , and also happens to invite and promote this, guess what will happen.. rent in that sector is going to increase disregarding the people that already live there who barely manages to live a modest-non luxury life , so they well now have to move or get a second job (most already do). So areas and things that originally were popular amongst the native population are now really expensive and/or exclusive.

[@TheYarbros]

Yes, gentrification is a naturally occurring circumstance. Geo arbitrage is a real thing and there is no defence in an open market. If you could find a way to live a better life in a less expensive area would you look into it?

[@humbertocarrera9136]

@@TheYarbros yes, i would look for an improvement as everyone else. This was not a rant, just something to be aware when deciding to move to a different country, people who does not know this may think this is just unjustified prejudice against foreigners

[@TheYarbros]

@@humbertocarrera9136 thanks for sharing. I like the dialogue.

[@MadeNCda]

It's happened in Canada, esp Toronto. We allowed 1.5 million in 2022 without proper planning wrt housing. We have a cost of living crisis and highest inflation in 30 yrs, and shortage of affordable housing. Unis and our gvmt allowed 800k foreign students....duing a housing crisis. Gvmt of Cda is woefully negligent. So if Mexicans are starting to feel marginalized trust me so are Cdns. Migration is positive so long as we are not decreasing the hopes and aspirations of the host nations' people. IMHO.

Thanks to the perspectives from you guys and what I call the Trifecta (Stephanie Perry, Rashida Dowe, and Adalia) I moved from New York to Queretaro in November2023. I’m on a SS income and I live here comfortably barring no emergencies. But I agree that the cost of living in Mexico is rising. I spent all day today watching Thailand videos and I’m obsessed. The temp residency in Mexico is steep in price, I’m going to try and get my residency this year, but I’m already feeling the itch to travel somewhere else. Southeast Asia is looking good right now. ❤

Big big BIG believer in find out for yourself. I've never experienced the peace I have outside of the US inside of the US. Which is just crazy. I'm actually surprised by your top pick of Thailand. That is one place I haven't been yet but plan to visit within the next year. Looking forward to that with whole new insight now. I need to go back and watch your videos of Thailand.

[@ChepeMunhoa]

Hola again Yarbros, i'm fron Chiapas and i'm loving your videos. I spent the summer of 2022 in Vietnam and Thailand (one month each country) and that was amazing, was cheaper than México, my homeland, and the security sensation is indeed different. I could enjoyed weed legalization when i was in Thailand and for that experience i really believe there Is one path for a better politics playground here in México. Its so nasty what Is happening with our brothers and sisters in their transits trough our country. I also travel to Perú in 2015 and It was absolutely gorgeous, definetly one of the best places on earth, but as mexican Is less affordable than southeast asia, for de divisas exchange. This planet Is beautiful, each country, but México has no competitor in variety landscapes 😅😂 sorry for my ethnocentrism. Greetings and muito axe

Hey, thanks for stopping by and you are right 100% Mexico is 2nd to none when it comes to variety....side note we gotta get back to Thailand to enjoy the new chill!

I think it's best to explore several countries over several years before considering settling down. Knowing what I know now- from living in Mexico- I would never move to Mexico if I was moving now. Maybe visit for a few months, but not settle.

[@virtuewisdom4633]

Great video. But like you said, everyone needs their own experience in living wherever they choose. I believe Mexico is still a winner, because of its close proximity to the U.S. and healthcare is still cheap there. Also, there are still areas in Mexico that are cheap to rent. Cartess, another KZbinr, just posted a two-bedroom for US$320 a month. With regards to racism, that's everywhere even amongst black people (I'm black). But I'm sure it's nothing like in the U.S., where you could be walking down the road and someone kills you because you are black! The U.S. has taken racism to another level that is so evil!

[@TheYarbros]

Absolutely correct. We just wanted to start a conversation because MX isn't an automatic winner anymore. Because of the reasons you mentioned lots will decide to go with Mexico.....but there are many options still out here.

Love you guys for giving your real opinions! I spent a lot of time in Mexico and loved it but I agree that it is difficult to find home. Maybe that is a side effect of being the descendant of people who were removed from their original culture, land etc... I don't know. Many of us seem to be searching for a place where we can fit in and belong. FYI, I do not think those folks in the news clip came over for medical tourism. That story is fishy. They may have been looking for drugs. They have a history and women going across the border for a BBL go alone or with a girlfriend, not three dudes.

Yes, lots of us are searching. Regarding the ppl. IDK. The cartel said they were sorry. Handed over the ppl who messed up and said they thought that the ppl were Haitian drug runners....so there's that 5o consider.

If you step into a deep hole on the sidewalk and break your leg or potentially injured for life, you are Not going to be able to sue that city govt or homeowner and get any money, etc & I remember someone had a car accident & went to jail before there was even a determination of right/wrong , if it is of interest to you to research,,,because Mexico is not a "Litigation Culture" like the US, snd people should know. There are other examples ie dog attacks on other dogs etc.

I feel they're just posting this stuff because they do not want us to leave for some odd reason. Of course that is just my opinion. People get kidnapped in the US all the time. Everyone would be shocked if they saw the statistics compared to Mexico btw I live in the US. Thank you for the work y'all do! Iam learning a lot

[@eleonoravishenina5482]

Reason US will be completely destroyed to nothing before 2025 and they need maximum people to suffer through it. So they don't want you to leave the country and spreading lies about Mexico.

[@TheYarbros]

Maybe but multiple need agencies in the states and Mexico posting the same story along with the Gulf Cartel taking credit for mistaking them for Haitian drug runners. They also handed the people who made the mistake.

[@CeeCeeImohlaapohko]

@@TheYarbros okay... thank you for that information! Also, you guys have great editing and acting skills! You two are definitely my favorite KZbinrs for traveling info 🤩

[@ericnights6406]

​@@TheYarbroswell theres many hispanics and blacks getting killed by police in the usa on walmarts and schools all the time and you suprice about 2 or 3 people that got kill in mexico🤔?

[@dhobby7771]

Fun video. Surprised Cartagena didn't make the cut. I also like DR and Panama. Been seriously thinking Lima for my next home address. Greetings from sunny Cancun! 😎

[@TheYarbros]

Cartagena freaking melted me 😂 and for Colombia it was on the expensive side. There are a small city in Colombia though...that is on our short list.

[@dhobby7771]

Yep. I remember Early morning tennis trying to avoid the heat. 😊

Isnt the PESO tough, amymore? rent, etc paid in pesos..... conversion is shocking.....(I hear) >>>>???

[@davidsebastianelli1326]

My rent and utilities went up less than $100us along with the pesos value. An extra hundred or so a month shouldn't break anyone's bank. Still living like a Rey on less than $1100us per month. My favorite fish taco has gone up by $0.22us and avocados went up by approximately $0.08us with todays conversion rate.

[@BPe-ie9je]

@@davidsebastianelli1326 thanks for info, David.

[@TheYarbros]

Conversion is a little painful knowing how far my money can go elsewhere...but the people and places if Mexico are worth a little discomfort ...but if prices keep rising.

I've never been there but what about Botswana? Last year the team from Botswana stayed in our little town not far from Eugene, OR. when they were here for the track and field world championships. They were all super nice and urged us to come visit Botswana.

[@TheYarbros]

Thank you!

[@melmartinez9589]

I've been following you for awhile now. I had thought that you were going to mention Costa Rica as a place to consider checking out then I remembered that I have not seen you make a video about Costa Rica unless I missed it. By the way, go visit Taxco which is a Magical Town 3 hours from CDMX. Good luck on all your travels. God bless. A Mexican living in Chicago.

[@davidsebastianelli1326]

Costa Rica is not a relatively inexpensive place to live anymore, if that's what you're looking for. It's also really hot by the coast. In most inland areas of Mexico you can be outside all day and your electric bill is low because you don't have to run your a/c at all hours of the day.

[@TheYarbros]

Yes, Costa Rica was expensive to us all around except for the Caribbean Coast.

[@liveourbest2067]

Lived in Lima for 6 years then moved back to the states for 7....Currently in Lima again...the only downside is the winter weather...its cloudy with no sun for months on end

[@TheYarbros]

Thanks for sharing!

[@khadergouesse2249]

Senegal

[@TheYarbros]

Ohh, we're looking forward to Senegal.

[@Knksquad]

I lived in Ghana living there is very expensive. Rwanda and cab Verde is great. And Tanzania. I live in Mexico but I’ll love to go to Ecuador, Guatemala, Columbia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Peru, El Salvador, Belize, and Venezuela very soon.

[@TheYarbros]

Safe travels!
