"The International Retirement Foundation has said that Mexico is still the number one retirement destination for North Americans."
"6,000,000 retired Americans will live in Mexico by 2025. That equates to an increase of 4,000,000 retirees over the next 14 years."
Recent headlines in U.S. newspapers and news agencies like CBS/AP and CNN have published articles about the Mexican government’s success in recent captures of notorious drug cartel leaders. Two of the most noteworthy arrests have come in just the last month. The head of the La Familia drug cartel, Jose de Jesus Mendez Vargas, aka “El Chango”, was arrested in the central state of Aguascalientes without incident. Of greater national interest both in Mexico and in the United States was the capture and arrest of Jesus Enrique Rejón Aguilar, known as “El Mamito”, the Zetas cartel founder and leader who was connected with the killing of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agent, Jaime Zapata, on February 14, 2011. According to Mexico’s federal police anti-drug division chief, Ramon E. Pequeño, the arrest of Rejón is “a triumph for the Mexican government. El Mamito’s capture is emblematic because he was one of the original Zetas.”
