Why Live in Mexico for Retirement?

Filed Under: Cost of Living in Mexico, La Escondida, Mexican Retirement Communities, Mexican Retirement Community, Mexico Retirement, Mexico Retirement communities, Mexico Retirement Living, Retirement Communities in Mexico

There are many, many reasons to live in Mexico for retirement; just a few of them are:

 

  • Excellent Mexico condos and home options for comfortable retirement
  • Warm weather all year round
  • Low cost of living
  • Excellent services and infrastructure
  • Good healthcare (at much lower prices)
  • Many excellent retirement activities – anything from sailing, to visiting ancient pyramids, to golf

 

In addition to all of this, here’s another key point; retiring in Mexico is actually one of the best ways to get to know other retirees.  While even back home, we can feel a little lost in the crowd, many of Mexico’s main beachfront destinations, as well as the most popular colonial cities and lakeside towns are home to a significant number of expats; many of them are here in Mexico for the same reasons as you, and you will find close friendships quickly.  The fact that you are both expats retiring in Mexico will give you an immediate connection.

 

Some residential developments are going one step further; they are actually planning and designing specifically to foster the lifestyle you are looking for.  One excellent example of this is a new Mexican retirement community in Playa del Carmen, named La Escondida.

 

La Escondida’s plans include thoughtful features for good deal of details for the relaxing retirement you’re looking for.  In terms of community planning, it is worth noting that only 26% of the development is dedicated to residential construction (which includes a variety of options, including condos and single family homes).

 

The other 74% is dedicated to shared green space, swimming pools, a club house with activity rooms, a gym and a reception style and welcome area.  Here, you will be able to get to know your neighbors easily, and have plenty of options to spend time together.

 

But this is not all.  As a full boutique hotel, it also offers many ways to enjoy the surrounding area, with a concierge, baggage delivery, green transportation service and an associated tour company.  The services will allow you to focus on getting to know the neighbors, and enjoying Playa del Carmen and the surrounding area with them.

 

This is one example of how retirement in Mexico can be the best way to spend these relaxing years.  Contact us to talk about the possibilities best for you.
