for the fact that it is a neighbor country, friendly people, it requires a very low income to live there...within the next 10 years 78 million "Baby Boomers" will retire and at least half will not have enougth money to continue living in the USA.Let's look at the options.... continue lving in the USA with little or no money..... depending on relatives and other institutions....Or living in Mexico, enjoying and living a decent life...Mexico is now the home to thousands of Americans and Canadians.... and I can name a particular spot that the mayority of people living there are Americans.I am sure that you have many questions concerning this topic, and I welcome your questions and comments.....questions such as ... can foreigners own real estate property in Mexico?
