Many Canadians, Europeans and Americans have chosen the Ajijic area on Lake Chapala as their preferred retirement destination for a number of reasons. One reason is that we have a very large expat community.

While many in the world may think that Mexico is a land of drug smugglers and flu bugs, for many retired Baby Boomers and open-minded adventurers, Mexico is a place where dreams come true and life is easy. At least that is the case for three counter culture renegades who met in Ajijic, a small village on the shores of Lake Chapala, minutes away from the bustling city of Guadalajara Mexico. What began as an occasional gig at local bars and cantinas has become a weekly tequila throw down for both Mexicans and Foreigners looking for a taste of the good old days.

Writing from the garden of our real estate office in Ajijic (a village on the shores of Lake Chapala) on a lovely Friday afternoon in August, temperature about 83 degrees, a cold Corona in my hand....
I live in work in Lake Chapala, the largest lake in Mexico. We have the largest population of Americans anywhere outside of the US and we expect many more of the baby boomers to make their way down here. Some of the main reasons that people move here are:
Boomers in Mexico, Mexico real estate, Ajijic real eatate, chapala real estate, Baby Boomers
Ajijic-An Evening at the Opera, and more….
Jalisco- Cultural Exchange Month-June, 2009
An annual event, with 2009 being an exchange featuring Japan, There are many events- some free, others reasonable. We decided to incorporate our night at the Opera into a mini holiday- a light lunch at Talento a superb Thai restaurant.

FOR DECADES , MEXICO HAS BEEN THE ANSWER FOR MANY AMERICANS, CANADIANS AND EUROPEANS WHEN THEY’VE NEEDED TO CHOOSE A SECOND HOME. TODAY, THE POSIBILITIES OFFERED BY THIS COUNTRY ARE BETTER AND MORE VARIED THAN EVER .
By Monica Lopez

Everyone dreams of a second home, from young couples and families who wish to have a permanent holiday retreat, to baby boomers looking for a retirement haven. Choosing the location of the dream involves multiple factors, such as the value of the investment to be made, accessibility, safety, and ultimately, whether this will be a place to spend time comfortably, with all the necessary services, surrounded by like-minded people. The answer for many Americans, Canadians and Europeans, for several decades, has been Mexico. Today, the possibilities offered by this country are better and more varied than ever. Some of the reasons are obvious. The weather is a major pull factor for both Americans and Canadians who look for warmer latitudes during winter. These “snowbirds”, as they are affectionately known, spend four to six months of the year in Mexico, where they never have to put up with a blizzard or de-ice a car. By spending the rest of the year in their home countries, they can stay in touch with their families, handle business affairs and maintain their resident status.
