Retiring in Mexico

Guanajuato

For retirees from the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia or New Zealand looking at Guanajuato, Mexico. We cover 2 places here: Guanajuato and San Miguel de Allende, each one comparable with a town anywhere else we hold.

Guanajuato is not compared with a town — compare the towns below instead. Why?

Guanajuato, a state of Mexico, is not the same kind of thing as a town: it spans many municipios and very different places. Putting a state-wide average beside one town's own figures produces a number that looks like an answer and describes nothing a person would experience — so the engine refuses that pairing rather than rendering it thinly. A town against another town, here or abroad, is like-for-like. Build a comparison →
