Are you surprised? Think about how much related violence you’ve seen with your own eyes recently.\u00c2\u00a0 Chances are, here in Playa del Carmen we’ve seen less than you have. (Unless your answer was “I haven’t seen any, except for news from distant places.”)\u00c2\u00a0 While the drug wars are real, media news seeks out and highlights the most horrible events; for example a mob vs. mob confrontation in one city near the U.S. border becomes “Mexico ravaged by drug violence.”\u00c2\u00a0 The same thing happens in the U.S. or Canada, and you are aware of the media’s tendency towards sensationalism; but we often forget to apply our same reasoning to news from other parts of the world.<\/p>\n
So, enough about the bad news.\u00c2\u00a0 Life in Playa del Carmen is safe and convenient.\u00c2\u00a0 If you are looking for a gated Mexico retirement community<\/a>, you can most certainly find them, but it is not necessary.\u00c2\u00a0 Whether looking for retirement or a place for family vacations, Mexico condos<\/a> or homes in Playa del Carmen can range from beautiful downtown properties in European communities to full resort communities outside of the central area.\u00c2\u00a0 You can choose a lifestyle in a happening, trendy neighborhood with lots of nightlife, or a place with quiet, tree-lined streets.\u00c2\u00a0 And, of course, there are always the beautiful beaches, wide with soft sand and turquoise water behind them.<\/p>\n If you are worried about the economy, take matters into your own hands.\u00c2\u00a0 Real estate investment in places like Playa del Carmen has proven to be reliable and an excellent source of return; as one of Latin America’s fastest growing communities, land in newly developing areas has appreciated up to 44%, despite a slow international economy!\u00c2\u00a0 The new globalized economy gives an advantage to places that provide reliable, well priced access to high-speed internet, like Playa del Carmen.\u00c2\u00a0 If you can make money online, why not live a relaxing life on the beach while doing it?<\/p>\n Of course, while Playa del Carmen is an ideal place to live, it isn’t perfect.\u00c2\u00a0 July tends to be a little too hot (although the ocean breeze in the evening is always cool and refreshing).\u00c2\u00a0 Also not every property is a good one. If you are going to invest, you will also want to work with qualified professionals to make sure you get the most accurate information to base your investment decision on.<\/p>\n The point here is, don’t let negative news reports discourage you from recognizing what really is good.\u00c2\u00a0 Maybe your thinking, “Why should I believe all this positive news more than the negative stuff?”<\/p>\n The answer: You shouldn’t.\u00c2\u00a0 Come check it out for yourself, talk to others who are living here, get the facts.\u00c2\u00a0 You’ll see what we’re talking about.<\/p>\n Thomas Lloyd <\/strong>graduated from Purdue University Krannert School of Management with a degree in Management\/Financial Option Investments.
