GUADALAJARA COST OF LIVING | 2023
Hi friends! In today’s video, I’m addressing the cost of living in Guadalajara, Mexico, including housing, food, transportation, healthcare, beauty services and more. Let me know if you find it useful, if there’s anything else you would have liked me to cover and/or how does the cost of living in Guadalajara compare to the cost of living where you currently reside.

I love your video. So well focused. After spending months researching Mexico and other countries online I find myself coming back over and over again to choosing Guadalajara, and specifically Colonial Americana/Monraz/Providencia.....my second choice is Queretaro (Juriquillia). It's one or the other.
It was so informative, thank you ! High quality video with a super camera/definition. Please continue your content about Guadalajara ! 🙌👌

Hi Maya! Yes, I must say, the low cost of living makes Mexico very attractive to many people around the world. For us, that’s only one of the many reasons we love it so much 🥰🥰 Thank you for watching!!
Wow! Love this Video. Very good information. I have a co-worker who moved to Guadalajara after he retired. He loves it. I had gone to visit him back in the fall of 2022. His house is in a beautiful area with lots of Greenery. The houses and the pools are extremely out of this world. My complements to the Builders and the Landscapers out there. Oh! and pool designers also. I like there is Costco out there. Maybe when I retire it will be my turn to move. to Guadalajara.

Great video. Im half Mexican (born in el DF) and half Puertorican so I have dual American/Mexican citizenship. I’m also a registered nurse in Atlanta and once my daughter finishes college (3 years) I plan on semi-retiring early to Guadalajara. I plan on living in an apartment in the city. I’m seriously considering buying an apartment in GDL since they are currently having a construction boom of high rise apartments. My dad already retired to GDL and since I helped him get established I’m very familiar with the cost of living. Your calculations are spot on. I figure I can work 3 month travel contracts in the US and then go hangout for 3 months in GDL…rinse and repeat 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hi! You’ll be fine, I wouldn’t worry so much about it. And the more time you spend in Mexico, the faster you’ll pick up the language. But definitely don’t let it hold you back; if you love the culture and the people, learning the language will come naturally 😊
$2.00 for a physician consultation fee? back in 2012 i was sent by my boss to go and get a flu shot. while i was there, the doctor asked me if i smoked and i said yes. he then told me that i should quit. when i received my bill i found that i was being charged $30.00 for a smoking cessation program. i didnt pay it....

I know.. At one of my past employers, smokers would get charged an additional $50/month for medical insurance. Never understood why that specific addiction got singled out tbh

@@azfo123Guadalajara Sur es una zona en crecimiento, actualmente experimenta algunas dificultades de movilidad debido a ese crecimiento, pero ya hay planes para mejorar eso, como ampliación de caminos, una nueva línea de tren ligero (Metro), y muchas opciones de centros comerciales y fraccionamientos de vivienda media - alta. Guadalajara, Sur, Zapopan Norte, Providencia, Chapalita, Colonia Americana, Country Club, son excelentes opciones para vivir.

It depends on the type of car, where you live, and even if a man or a woman drives it. There are many factors that influence the cost of car insurance.
ONE CORRECTION. All antibiotics require a registered doctor’s prescription . Is there a chance you’re naming every medicine as antibiotic ? Non antibiotics don’t require prescription.

Hi there! That would have been a gross error to make. From our experience, as I mentioned, some pharmacies require prescription for antibiotics and some don’t. We bought Penicillin and Amoxicillin, for example, multiple times, and weren’t asked for a prescription. Thank you for watching 😊

@@ClauChasesColors please tell me where they infringe the law to report it , they will lose their permit and the important thing , they are to give the prescriptions in order to re buy more antibiotic . I live in Guadalajara and even when it was medicine for my dog the pharmacy didn’t give me the prescription one time cos the veterinarian didn’t sign the prescription in both pages just the second one and the name of the antibiotic was on the first page . Be careful not to buy fake or expired medicine this governor we have doesn’t care . In 23 out of 32 states all medicines are controlled by the federal government , ruled by the president’s party , there , all treatments and medications are free and the infrastructure and service are superb. This governor we hate , just asked for the money and “he would take care of our health “. Buy at very well known drug stores but even doctor Simi generic medicines asks for prescription when it has to do with antibiotics .
So what about crime there just asking thinking coming there one day in 2025
