johanson Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 I checked with Mr. Google and he said that as of 2018 "In Mexico, a country of almost 125 million people, it is estimated that just over one million foreigners live, of which most were born in the United States, according to the 2018 National Survey of Demographic Dynamics of the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI)." The population today is more like 130,000,000 and the number of foreigners has also increased. So we are slightly less than 1% of the total population Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we lived NOB we couldn't afford household help. The only part of the country where climate approaches the quality here is Southern California and that isn't affordable either and has a whole host of other drawbacks. It is far easier to get medical help for the normal problems of aging. Food is of much better quality. Mexicans in general are much more respectful and supportive of old folks. When it comes to sheer stupidity it is hard to beat what is going on NOB these days. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MY biggest surprise was being from California--Bay Area-was that I was always broke and hitting the credit cards to make ends meet-- now I have more disposible cash than ever---my wallet is full of Pesos--HA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
